SYNONYM REFERENCE
- (HSDB , 1999; Lewis, 1997; Lewis, 1996; RTECS , 1999)
USES/FORMS/SOURCES
It is used as a refrigerant, dry-cleaning solvent, film processing solvent, degreasing solvent, solvent for oils and gums, metal and plastic cleaning solvent, blowing agent, heat transfer medium, and polymer intermediate. It is used in fire extinguishers and in drying electronic parts and precision equipment. It is also used to make chlorotrifluoroethylene (ACGIH, 1991; Ashford, 1994; Hathaway et al, 1996; Lewis, 1997).
1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane is an ozone-depleting chlorofluorocarbon (ACGIH, 1991; Clayton & Clayton, 1994). It is available in technical and spectrophotometric grades (Ashford, 1994; HSDB , 1999; Lewis, 1997).
1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane is usually produced by a reaction of perchloroethylene and hydrogen fluoride.
-CLINICAL EFFECTS
GENERAL CLINICAL EFFECTS
- 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane may be irritating to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. Signs and symptoms of exposure may include headache, light-headedness, dizziness, CNS depression, cardiac arrhythmias, and pulmonary edema. Dermatitis may result from dermal contact. Deaths have occurred when this chemical was used in small, closed, unventilated areas.
- Chronic exposure may result in weakness, pain, and paresthesias in the legs.
- Lethargy, nervousness, tremors, facial swelling, bleeding lungs, hypotension, tachycardia, myocardial depression, vomiting, diarrhea, and mild liver changes have been observed in experimental animals.
- POTENTIAL HEALTH HAZARDS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 160 (ERG, 2004)
Toxic by ingestion. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Exposure in an enclosed area may be very harmful. Contact may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire may produce irritating and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.
ACUTE CLINICAL EFFECTS
- Volunteers exposed to FC113 concentrations of 1,500 to 4,500 ppm for 1.5 and 2.75 hours experienced a decline in psychomotor performance at levels higher than 1,500 ppm (Stopps & MCLaughlin, 1967).
- CNS depression can occur at 4,500 ppm (HSDB). Symptoms of CNS depression include nausea, weakness, dizziness, headache, loss of control and judgement. FC113 concentrations in the range of 20% (200,000 ppm) produce confusion, pulmonary irritation, and tremors (HSDB).
- Occupational fatalities have occurred when workers were exposed to very high FC113 concentrations without protection, such as in tank cleaning operations (May & Blotzer, 1984). The cause of death has generally been cardiac arrhythmias (May & Blotzer, 1984).
- The compressed liquid can cause frostbite injury if sprayed directly onto the skin (HSDB).
- Similar effects have been produced with acute exposures in laboratory animals. CNS depression occurred in rats and dogs exposed to airborne concentrations of 11,000 to 13,000 ppm (p 24); respiratory irritation was seen at concentrations greater than 12,000 ppm (HSDB). Irregular heartbeats have been produced in monkeys (HSDB), mice (Aviodo & Belej, 1974), and dogs (Reinhardt, 1973), the latter with exposure to a 1% concentration (10,000 ppm).
- In dogs a concentration of 0.5% (5,000 ppm) correlated with a blood level of 12 mmcg/mL; however, the kinetics of appearance and disappearance of FC113 in the blood are complex (Trochimowicz, 1974). FC113 was not irritating to the skin of mice, rats, or guinea pigs (Desoille, 1968).
- INTERACTIONS--FC113 acted synergistically with PIPERONYL BUTOXIDE to produce acute toxicity in young mice (Epstein, 1967). These two compounds are often found together in aerosol insecticide sprays.
CHRONIC CLINICAL EFFECTS
- Humans exposed to 500 or 1,000 ppm of FC113 for 6 hours per day, 5 days per week for 2 weeks experienced only mild throat irritation (HSDB).
- Occupational exposure in the range of 13 to 111 ppm produced no adverse effects (Triebig & Burkhardt, 1978). Neurological changes were reported, together with lower hemoglobin content, in some workers (Filicheva, 1975). A single case report of neuropathy possibly caused by high-level exposure for 7 years has been published (Raffi & Violante, 1981). A group of 50 workers exposed to concentrations of 46 to 4,700 ppm for an average of 2.77 years had no adverse effects (Imgus & Adkis, 1972).
- One case of liver damage with fatty degeneration has been reported with chronic FC113 exposure (Lun & Schmidt, 1979).
- Dogs, monkeys, mice, and rats given FC113 for 14 days showed no ill effects, except for reduced nerve transmission in dogs (Carter, 1970). Mice, rats, and guinea pigs exposed to 90,000 to 120,000 ppm in repeated doses had little toxicity (Desoille, 1968).
- In chronic studies in experimental animals, mice, rats, and dogs exposed from 2 weeks to 23 months to concentrations of 164 to 2240 mg/kg/day showed signs of CNS depression (including sedation and ataxia), but these effects were readily reversible (Smith & Case, 1973). No EKG changes were seen in dogs exposed for 3 to 12 months (Smith & Case, 1973).
-MEDICAL TREATMENT
LIFE SUPPORT
- Support respiratory and cardiovascular function.
SUMMARY
- FIRST AID - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 160 (ERG, 2004)
Move victim to fresh air. Call 911 or emergency medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. Wash skin with soap and water. Keep victim warm and quiet. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves.
FIRST AID EYE EXPOSURE - If this chemical contacts the eyes, immediately wash the eyes with large amounts of water, occasionally lifting the lower and upper lids. Get medical attention immediately. Contact lenses should not be worn when working with this chemical. DERMAL EXPOSURE - If this chemical contacts the skin, promptly wash the contaminated skin with soap and water. If this chemical penetrates the clothing, promptly remove the clothing and wash the skin with soap and water. Get medical attention promptly. INHALATION EXPOSURE - If a person breathes large amounts of this chemical, move the exposed person to fresh air at once. If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration. Keep the affected person warm and at rest. Get medical attention as soon as possible. ORAL EXPOSURE - If this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention immediately. TARGET ORGANS - Skin, heart, CNS, and cardiovascular system (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, 2007).
GENERAL - Move victims of inhalation exposure from the toxic environment and administer 100% humidified supplemental oxygen with assisted ventilation as required. Exposed skin and eyes should be copiously flushed with water. Because of the potential for rapid onset of CNS depression or seizures with possible aspiration of gastric contents, EMESIS SHOULD NOT BE INDUCED. Cautious gastric lavage followed by administration of activated charcoal may be of benefit if the patient is seen soon after the exposure.
INHALATION EXPOSURE - INHALATION: Move patient to fresh air. Monitor for respiratory distress. If cough or difficulty breathing develops, evaluate for respiratory tract irritation, bronchitis, or pneumonitis. Administer oxygen and assist ventilation as required. Treat bronchospasm with an inhaled beta2-adrenergic agonist. Consider systemic corticosteroids in patients with significant bronchospasm. If bronchospasm and wheezing occur, consider treatment with inhaled sympathomimetic agents. ACUTE LUNG INJURY: Maintain ventilation and oxygenation and evaluate with frequent arterial blood gases and/or pulse oximetry monitoring. Early use of PEEP and mechanical ventilation may be needed.
DERMAL EXPOSURE - DECONTAMINATION: Remove contaminated clothing and jewelry and place them in plastic bags. Wash exposed areas with soap and water for 10 to 15 minutes with gentle sponging to avoid skin breakdown. A physician may need to examine the area if irritation or pain persists (Burgess et al, 1999). Treat dermal irritation or burns with standard topical therapy. Patients developing dermal hypersensitivity reactions may require treatment with systemic or topical corticosteroids or antihistamines. Exposure to compressed liquid or escaping compressed gas can cause frostbite injury. PREHOSPITAL Rewarming of a localized area should only be considered if the risk of refreezing is unlikely. Avoid rubbing the frozen area which may cause further damage to the area (Grieve et al, 2011; Hallam et al, 2010).
REWARMING Do not institute rewarming unless complete rewarming can be assured; refreezing thawed tissue increases tissue damage. Place affected area in a water bath with a temperature of 40 to 42 degrees Celsius for 15 to 30 minutes until thawing is complete. The bath should be large enough to permit complete immersion of the injured part, avoiding contact with the sides of the bath. A whirlpool bath would be ideal. Some authors suggest a mild antibacterial (ie, chlorhexidine, hexachlorophene or povidone-iodine) be added to the bath water. Tissues should be thoroughly rewarmed and pliable; the skin will appear a red-purple color (Grieve et al, 2011; Hallam et al, 2010; Murphy et al, 2000). Correct systemic hypothermia which can cause cold diuresis due to suppression of antidiuretic hormone; consider IV fluids (Grieve et al, 2011). Rewarming may be associated with increasing acute pain, requiring narcotic analgesics. For severe frostbite, clinical trials have shown that pentoxifylline, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, can enhance tissue viability by increasing blood flow and reducing platelet activity (Hallam et al, 2010).
WOUND CARE Digits should be separated by sterile absorbent cotton; no constrictive dressings should be used. Protective dressings should be changed twice per day. Perform twice daily hydrotherapy for 30 to 45 minutes in warm water at 40 degrees Celsius. This helps debride devitalized tissue and maintain range of motion. Keep the area warm and dry between treatments (Hallam et al, 2010; Murphy et al, 2000). The injured extremities should be elevated and should not be allowed to bear weight. In patients at risk for infection of necrotic tissue, prophylactic antibiotics and tetanus toxoid have been recommended by some authors (Hallam et al, 2010; Murphy et al, 2000). Non-tense clear blisters should be left intact due to the risk of infection; tense or hemorrhagic blisters may be carefully aspirated in a setting where aseptic technique is provided (Hallam et al, 2010). Further surgical debridement should be delayed until mummification demarcation has occurred (60 to 90 days). Spontaneous amputation may occur. Analgesics may be required during the rewarming phase; however, patients with severe pain should be evaluated for vasospasm. IMAGING: Arteriography and noninvasive vascular techniques (e.g., plain radiography, laser Doppler studies, digital plethysmography, infrared thermography, isotope scanning), have been useful in evaluating the extent of vasospasm after thawing and assessing whether debridement is needed (Hallam et al, 2010). In cases of severe frostbite, Technetium 99 (triple phase scanning) and MRI angiography have been shown to be the most useful to assess injury and determine the extent or need for surgical debridement (Hallam et al, 2010). TOPICAL THERAPY: Topical aloe vera may decrease tissue destruction and should be applied every 6 hours (Murphy et al, 2000). IBUPROFEN THERAPY: Ibuprofen, a thromboxane inhibitor, may help limit inflammatory damage and reduce tissue loss (Grieve et al, 2011; Murphy et al, 2000). DOSE: 400 mg orally every 12 hours is recommended (Hallam et al, 2010). THROMBOLYTIC THERAPY: Thrombolysis (intra-arterial or intravenous thrombolytic agents) may be beneficial in those patients at risk to lose a digit or a limb, if done within the first 24 hours of exposure. The use of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) to clear microvascular thromboses can restore arterial blood flow, but should be accompanied by close monitoring including angiography or technetium scanning to evaluate the injury and to evaluate the effects of t-PA administration. Potential risk of the procedure includes significant tissue edema that can lead to a rise in interstitial pressures resulting in compartment syndrome (Grieve et al, 2011). CONTROVERSIAL: Adjunct pharmacological agents (ie, heparin, vasodilators, prostacyclins, prostaglandin synthetase inhibitors, dextran) are controversial and not routinely recommended. The role of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, sympathectomy remains unclear (Grieve et al, 2011). CHRONIC PAIN: Vasomotor dysfunction can produce chronic pain. Amitriptyline has been used in some patients; some patients may need a referral for pain management. Inability to tolerate the cold (in the affected area) has been observed following a single episode of frostbite (Hallam et al, 2010). MORBIDITIES: Frostbite can produce localized osteoporosis and possible bone loss following a severe case. These events may take a year or more to develop. Children may be at greater risk to develop more severe events (ie, early arthritis) (Hallam et al, 2010).
EYE EXPOSURE - DECONTAMINATION: Remove contact lenses and irrigate exposed eyes with copious amounts of room temperature 0.9% saline or water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation, pain, swelling, lacrimation, or photophobia persist after 15 minutes of irrigation, the patient should be seen in a healthcare facility. Exposure to compressed liquid or escaping compressed gas can cause frostbite injury. An ophthalmological consultation should be obtained.
ORAL EXPOSURE - Because of the potential for gastrointestinal tract irritation or CNS depression, DO NOT induce emesis. Significant esophageal or gastrointestinal tract irritation or burns may occur following ingestion. The possible benefit of early removal of some ingested material by cautious gastric lavage must be weighed against potential complications of bleeding or perforation. GASTRIC LAVAGE: Consider after ingestion of a potentially life-threatening amount of poison if it can be performed soon after ingestion (generally within 1 hour). Protect airway by placement in the head down left lateral decubitus position or by endotracheal intubation. Control any seizures first. ACTIVATED CHARCOAL: Administer charcoal as a slurry (240 mL water/30 g charcoal). Usual dose: 25 to 100 g in adults/adolescents, 25 to 50 g in children (1 to 12 years), and 1 g/kg in infants less than 1 year old. Observe patients with ingestion carefully for the possible development of esophageal or gastrointestinal tract irritation or burns. If signs or symptoms of esophageal irritation or burns are present, consider endoscopy to determine the extent of injury.
-RANGE OF TOXICITY
MINIMUM LETHAL EXPOSURE
The minimum lethal human dose to this agent has not been delineated. 1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane is not considered to be extremely toxic, however death may occur as a result of working with high concentrations of this chemical in a confined area (ACGIH, 1991; Hathaway et al, 1996).
MAXIMUM TOLERATED EXPOSURE
The maximum tolerated human exposure to this agent has not been delineated. No adverse effects were observed in humans following exposure to airborne levels of 1500 ppm for 30 to 100 minutes. Mild throat irritation occurred following exposure to approximately 500 or 1000 ppm for 6 hours per day, 5 days per week, for 2 weeks (ACGIH, 1991; Hathaway et al, 1996). Exposure to 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane airborne levels ranging from 46 to 4700 ppm for an average of 2.8 years resulted in no signs or symptoms in 50 workers (ACGIH, 1991; Hathaway et al, 1996). Adverse effects should not occur as a result of exposure to this chemical at ambient mixing ratios expected to be in the general environment (HSDB , 1999).
Rats and rabbits exposed to 11,000 to 12,000 ppm, 2 hours a day, for up to 2 years experienced no adverse effects (ACGIH, 1991; Hathaway et al, 1996). Rats, mice, monkeys, and dogs exposed continuously to 2000 ppm for 14 days had no adverse effects (ACGIH, 1991).

CONTAINMENT/WASTE TREATMENT OPTIONS
SPILL OR LEAK PRECAUTIONS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 160 (ERG, 2004) ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Stop leak if you can do it without risk.
RECOMMENDED PROTECTIVE CLOTHING - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 160 (ERG, 2004) Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Wear chemical protective clothing that is specifically recommended by the manufacturer. Structural firefighters' protective clothing will only provide limited protection.
Only persons wearing protective equipment, including gloves, goggles, and, if the spill is large, a positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus should be allowed in the contaminated area (CHRIS , 1999; HSDB , 1999; Sittig, 1991). The contaminated area should be ventilated after all ignition sources have been removed (Sittig, 1991). If it is not a hazard to personnel and the material is not involved in a fire, attempt to stop or control any leaks and prevent the compound from entering water supplies (CHRIS , 1999; HSDB , 1999). Liquids should be absorbed in materials such as dry sand, earth, or vermiculite and deposited in sealed containers (HSDB , 1999; Sittig, 1991).
Mix this compound with a combustible fuel and incinerate completely. If incineration is not complete, phosgene may form. Halo acids are produced during incineration and must be removed using an acid scrubber (HSDB , 1999; Sittig, 1991). Waste management activities associated with material disposition are unique to individual situations. Proper waste characterization and decisions regarding waste management should be coordinated with the appropriate local, state, or federal authorities to ensure compliance with all applicable rules and regulations.
-ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD MANAGEMENT
POLLUTION HAZARD
- 1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane does not occur naturally. It may be released to the environment during its use as a foaming agent, refrigerant, or solvent or during storage, production, or transport of the compound. It may also be released to soil following the disposal of products that contain this compound, such as mobile air conditioners, refrigeration units, and centrifugal and reciprocating chillers. It is highly volatile and has limited water solubility; therefore, all releases of this compound should eventually move into the atmosphere. The estimated global release rate of this compound is 9.1x10(4) tons per year (Howard, 1990; HSDB , 1999).
ENVIRONMENTAL FATE AND KINETICS
1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane has a high vapor pressure and therefore should exist in the atmosphere as a vapor. It will not degrade in the troposphere, but diffuses to the stratosphere where direct photolysis is the primary removal mechanism. It is also removed from the stratosphere by a reaction with singlet oxygen. It will persist in the stratosphere for 63 to 122 years and is therefore transported long distances. The long persistence also results in a fairly uniform concentration of the compound throughout the globe (Howard, 1990; HSDB , 1999). Howard et al (1991) lists a tropospheric half-life of 40 to 1000 years.
SURFACE WATER Volatilization is the primary removal process when 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane is released to water. The volatilization half-life is estimated to be 4 hours from a model river. Adsorption to sediments, bioaccumulation, and chemical hydrolysis are not expected to be significant removal processes, however adsorption to sediments may be moderate (Howard, 1990; HSDB , 1999). The half-life for surface water is estimated to range from 6 months to 1 year; the half-life for ground water may range from 1 to 2 years (Howard et al, 1991).
TERRESTRIAL Rapid volatilization from soil surfaces and leaching, possibly into ground water, should occur if 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane is released to soil. Mobility in soil should be moderate, based on estimated Koc values of 191 and 259 (Howard, 1990; HSDB , 1999). The estimated half-life in soil ranges from 6 months to 1 year (Howard et al, 1991).
ABIOTIC DEGRADATION
- 1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane will not react with photochemically generated radicals and ozone molecules. It will not degrade in the troposphere, but diffuses to the stratosphere where direct photolysis is the primary removal mechanism. Chlorine atoms are released during photolysis after which the atoms contribute to the catalytic removal of stratospheric ozone. 1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane is also removed from the stratosphere by a reaction with singlet oxygen. It will persist in the stratosphere for 63 to 122 years (Howard, 1990; HSDB , 1999).
BIODEGRADATION
- The estimated aerobic half-life ranges from 6 months to 1 year (Howard et al, 1991).
- The estimated anaerobic half-life ranges from 2 to 4 years (Howard et al, 1991).
