Safety & Precautions

Safety Notice

R1216 is non-flammable but exhibits mild chronic toxicity (harmful by inhalation, respiratory irritant); ensure ventilation and PPE. ASHRAE 34 toxicity classification is not yet completed. As a PFC its atmospheric lifetime is short (~5.5 days) with very low GWP. Handle per applicable safety and environmental regulations.

Storage & Transportation	Store in a cool, well-ventilated warehouse away from fire and heat; temperature not above 52℃. Keep separated from oxidizers. Ensure workplace ventilation to avoid high-concentration inhalation; wear appropriate respiratory protection when handling. Inspect cylinders periodically and handle gently.
