Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air. Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush with copious amounts of water lifting eyelids. Flush for 15 minutes at least. Seek immediate medical attention. Emergency measure - Skin: Wash affected areas with copious amounts of soap and water. Seek medical attention, if irritation is not reversible after washing. Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do not cause vomiting. Seek immediate medical attention. Wash mouth with copious amounts of water and aerate.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Big fires: foam, water jet Small fires: Kohlendioxid, powder, sand, dolomite Cool down containers with water and dispense damps. Keep away from canalisation. Avoid straight water jet (fire would be spread). Product arising from burning: Not known Product determined by test: N Protective equipment: According to safety standards.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: Seal leak, if appropriate and possible. Extinguish all sources of ignition. Avoid sparks, flames, fume, heat. Aerate. Avoid preparation from getting into small rooms (danger of explosion). Keep away from canalisation. Canalisations, that can exclude the formation of accumulation of explosive vapours, can be used. Cover spilled material with absorbing material (e.g. :::). Higher amounts have to be kept separate for succeeding disposal. Take up spilt material (e.g. by using an approved industrial vacuum cleaner). Carefully transfer the spillage into waste containers which have to be tightly closed and labelled according to TRGS 201. While taking up the spillage and cleaning the polluted area avoid skin and eye contact as well as inhalation of the substance by wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (see section "Handling").
Handling and storage
Handling: 1,1-Bis(ferrocenyl)octan will not be produced as pure substance at production-scale, but will be formed in-situ during the production of the preparation Satacen 3, with a maximum content of 20 % 1,1-Bis(ferrocenyl)octan. Only for the studies performed for the notification, the substance was synthesised with a purity of 84.3 % at laboratory scale. However, it will be never handled in that form. Therefore, chapter 2.3.00 - 2.6.00 and the safety data sheet will be provided on the basis of the preparation (Please note that many aspects are due to the other ingredients of the preparation). Where possible, closed or at least splashproof equipment should be used during filling, metered feeding, and sampling. Aerate and avoid inhalation of gases. If technical extraction or ventilation measures are not possible or are insufficient, respiratory protection (e.g. :::) should be worn in the case of possible exposure by inhalation. Do not use in small rooms without wearing respiratory protective device and without aeration. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Therefore tested protective gloves (e.g. :::) and suitable protective clothing (e.g. :::) should be worn. Keep away from ignition sources. Avoid heat, open fire, spark formation. Storage containers have to be earthed. Storage: Store in dry and well aerated rooms in closed secure containers which are labelled according to the regulations. Substance can corrode some plastics and rubber. Secure containers against falling by taking the appropriate measures. Avoid residues on their outside. Containers have to be earthed in order to avoid electrostatic charge. Keep away from heat, flames and oxidising substances. Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The preparation will be packaged in different kinds of containers, e.g.: Steel drum: (200 L) Bundles: (25 - 28 L) Bottles: (1 - 2,5 L)

If user operations generate dust, fumes, gas, vapour or mist, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any recommended or statutory limits.
Hygiene measures : Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
Eye/face protection : Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists, gases or dusts. If contact is possible, the following protection should be worn, unless the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection : safety glasses with side-shields. Recommended : splash goggles.
Hand protection : Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Considering the parameters specified by the glove manufacturer, check during use that the gloves are still retaining their protective properties. It should be noted that the time to breakthrough for any glove material may be different for different glove manufacturers. In case of mixtures, consisting of several substances, the protection time of the gloves cannot be accurately estimated. > 8 hours (breakthrough time) : Viton 1 - 4 hours (breakthrough time : nitrile rubber.
Body protection : Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this substance.
Other skin protection : Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this substance.
Respiratory protection: Use a properly fitted, air-pyrifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved standard if a risk assessment indicates that this is necessary. Respirator selection must be based on known anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the substance and the safe working limits of the selected respirator. Recommended : organic vapour (Type A) and particulate filter.
Environmental
exposure controls : Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
