Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. Get immediate medical attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with running water, lifting the upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get immediate medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Immediately wash skin with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get immediate medical
attention if irritation persists after washing.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Get immediate medical attention.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, dry sand.
Product arising from burning: Oxides of carbon.
Product determined by test: N
Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing
apparatus must be worn.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity.
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment conforming to
the relevant national or international standards.
Absorb spillages of solutions with a suitable inert material
(eg sand or soil). Carefully transfer the spillage to waste
containers, or use a sealed industrial vacuum machine.
Containers filled with waste material must be labelled in
the same way as the original containers.
Clean the spillage area with water and detergent.
Dispose of waste material by incineration in accordance with
local regulations.
Handling and storage
Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used in
conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with
any local regulations in order to avoid exposure by contact
and inhalation.
Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the
substance.
When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled
appropriate personal protective equipment (i.e. chemical
protective glasses, chemical resistant clothing, eye
protection and organic vapour mask)should be worn. Such
protective equipment should conform to the appropriate
international or national standards.
These should be regarded as a minimum.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated, flammable liquid
storage area or cabinet.
Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 20 litre steel can and 200 litre steel drum.

Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Handling of the substance will be by trained operators and
will be kept to a minimum.
Discharge to the environment will be minimal. Recovery from
minor spillages or accidental discharge is not economically
or technically feasible, and such waste material will be
disposed of by incineration. In principle, it may be
possible to recover larger spillages of uncontaminated
material for subsequent use.
Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The notification tests have shown that the substance is
harmful by oral exposure and is potentially mutagenic and
therefore considered hazardous to health.
No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the
hazardous health properties.
Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with
inert material (eg sand or soil) may be disposed of by
incineration or landfill at an authorised tip in accordance
with local regulations.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance can be disposed of by incineration by burning
under controlled conditions at a licensed waste treatment
processor in accordance with local regulations. Stack gases
should be scrubbed, because noxious fumes (eg carbon oxides)
could be formed.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly
tothe sewage system or the aqueous environment.However,
adverse effects on sewage treatment systems would be
unlikely.
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Not applicable.
