Key Properties
- Colourless, tasteless, and odourless
- Inert to all materials at all temperatures and pressures
- Heavier than air, argon collects in low‑lying areas, ducts, and drains
- Asphyxiant (does not support life)
- Lower thermal conductivity compared to most other gases
Safety and Protection
Respiratory Protection:
- When required by risk assessment, Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) may be used.
- Selection of the Respiratory Protective Device (RPD) must be based on exposure levels, product hazards, and safe working limits.
- Use self‑contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or positive pressure airline with mask in oxygen‑deficient atmospheres.
Guideline Reference: EN 137 – Respiratory protective devices, self‑contained open‑circuit compressed air breathing apparatus with full face mask (requirements, testing, marking).
Thermal Hazards: No precautionary measures are necessary.
Hygiene Measures: Follow good industrial hygiene and safety procedures. Do not eat, drink, or smoke when handling the product.
Environmental Controls: For waste disposal, refer to section 13 of the SDS.
