Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Move to area of fresh air. If person is not breathing, give
artifical respiration. If breathing is difficult,
administer oxygen.


If there are signs of discomfort, seek medical advice. Show
copy of SDS or label to medical staff.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. Seek medical attention if signs of discomfort.
Emergency measure - Skin: Wash with water and mild soap or detergent. If signs of
discomfort, seek medical attention. Remove contaminated
clothing and wash thoroughly before re-use.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: If significant ingestion, Vomiting may be induced by trained
personnel if the person is conscious and not experiencing
convulsions.


If signs of discomfort, seek medical advice. Show copy of
SDS or label to medical staff.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Dry foam, powder, water spray, carbon dioxide and other
extinguishing agents. No adverse reaction with normal
extinguishing agents is known. Evaluate the nature of the
incident before using water. Use appropriate medium for the
underlying cause of fire and surrounding environment.

Product arising from burning: Complete combustion will lead to the formation of carbon
dioxide, nitrogen oxides and water. Incomplete combustion
(eg in enclosed spaces) will result in volatile organic

derivatives, nitrous oxides and carbon monoxide.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective equipment is recommended including breathing
apparatus, suitable gloves, goggles and face protection.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Collect and place into suitably labelled containers and
dispose of for reclaimation or disposal in accordance with
local regulations. Residues and minor spills may be washed
away with water to process drainage system if permitted
under local regulations.


Protective clothing should be worn including suitable eye
protection, dust mask and coveralls.

Handling and storage

Handling: Environmental controls such as local exhaust ventilation
should be in place to reduce dust levels. In addition,
employees should use the necessary personal protective
equipment (PPE) to reduce their risk of exposure, such as
respiratory protection to EN 136, coveralls, latex or other
impermeable gloves and safety glasses. Rubber, neoprene or
other gloves may be required if solvents, corrosives or
other chemicals are present.


Equipment should be bonded and earthed to control static
charges when handling the powder. Powder handling equipment

such as dust collectors, dryers and mills may require
additional protection, such as explosion venting.

Storage: Store in polyethylene lined drums. Ensure the containers
are suitably labelled.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The substance is packed in UN approved polyethylene lined
containers.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: Avoid contact with strong oxidising and reducing agents.

Chemical reaction with water: The substance appears to hydrolyse moderately quickly in
water, but this is not thought to result in the formation of
hazardous products. There is no violent reaction with
water.

Dust explosion: Mild to moderate explosion characteristics if ignited as a
dust cloud. The substance is also highly susceptible to
accumulating static charges during handling, and
uncontrolled static discharge may provide a source of
ignition under certain conditions.


Provide suitable bonding and grounding for containers and
process equipment to control static charges. Powder
handling equipment such as dust collectors, dryers and mills
may require additional protective measures.

Dust explosion determined by test: Y

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance is consumed during use and there is no
opportunity for recovery or recycling.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: Hydrolysing the substance will destroy it. No known method
of neutralisation is known.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Trace quantities are destroyed by biological oxidation in
waste water treatment plants.

Code 641

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: This is recommended for large quantities and solvent wastes.
Closed system incinerators with scrubbers should be used in
compliance with local and national legislation.

Code A663

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Trace quantities in water can be treated in secondary
biological WWTP before discharge to municipal treatment
works.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: No other recommended methods of disposal.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable to the general public.
