Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 from source of exposure. If victim has difficulty breathing, give artificial respiration. Seek medical attention.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse eye for at least 10 minutes with water or saline solution, holding the eye open. Seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Skin: Wash affected area thoroughly with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing as washing proceeds. Contaminted clothing should be washed or dry-cleaned before re-use.

Obtain medical attention if redness persists or redness occurs.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Carbon dioxide, foam or dry powder.

DO NOT USE WATER

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon, sulfur and phosphorus oxides).

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus must be worn.

Fight the fire from a safe distance or protected location.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity.

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.

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 substance containers.

Clean the spillage area with detergent and water. Do not direct washings to the open sewer; instead contain all washings and dispose of as for reaction process wastes.

Dispose of waste material in accordance with local regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used under conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with any local regulations in order to avoid exposure.

Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the substance.

When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.

Such protective equipment should conform to the appropriate international or national standards as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard EN374

Chemical protective clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166.

Furthermore, when respiratory protective equipment has to be used, it must be capable of adequately controlling exposure, be suitable for the purpose, and conform to the appropriate international or national standards, such as a vapour mask conforming to EN405 FFA1.

These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool dry place, under conditions of darkness.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The material is supplied in P90 drums (200 litre HDPE drums).

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None reported.

Chemical reaction with water: None reported.

Dust explosion: Not applicable. The substance is a liquid.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: 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 appropriate measures in line with the companies' policies. In principle, it may be possible to recover larger spillages of uncontaminated material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: None known.

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 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, sulfur and phosphorus oxides) could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to the 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. The material does not enter the public domain.
