What PPE should I wear when handling Cfc 114?+

Safety glasses with side shields and nitrile gloves are the baseline. Work inside a fume hood or use a suitable respirator. Check SDS section 8 for material-specific breakthrough times.

How should Cfc 114 be stored?+

Store Cfc 114 (CAS 76-14-2) in tightly closed original containers, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials.

Is Cfc 114 dangerous for the environment?+

No specific environmental pictogram (GHS09) is listed in our records for Cfc 114, but any chemical waste should be handled through your site's hazardous-waste procedure, not poured down the drain.

Where can I find the official Safety Data Sheet for Cfc 114?+

Official, up-to-date SDS documents are published by each manufacturer (Sigma-Aldrich, Merck, Thermo Fisher, VWR, Carl Roth, etc.) and by regulators such as ECHA and NIOSH. This page is an educational summary and does not replace the manufacturer's SDS.
