Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of first aid measures

Eye: No specific first aid measures are required. As a precaution, remove contact lenses, if worn, and

flush eyes with water.

Skin: No specific first aid measures are required. As a precaution, remove clothing and shoes if

contaminated. To remove the material from skin, apply a waterless hand cleaner, mineral oil, or petroleum

jelly. Then wash with soap and water. Discard contaminated clothing and shoes or thoroughly clean before

reuse.

Ingestion: No specific first aid measures are required. Do not induce vomiting. As a precaution, get

medical advice.

Inhalation: No specific first aid measures are required. If exposed to excessive levels of material in the air,

move the exposed person to fresh air. Get medical attention if coughing or respiratory discomfort occurs.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

IMMEDIATE SYMPTOMS AND HEALTH EFFECTS

Eye: Not expected to cause prolonged or significant eye irritation.

Skin: Contact with the skin is not expected to be harmful.

Ingestion: Not expected to be harmful if swallowed.

Inhalation: Not expected to be harmful if inhaled.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Use water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish flames.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Combustion Products: Highly dependent on combustion conditions. A complex mixture of airborne

solids, liquids, and gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified organic compounds

will be evolved when this material undergoes combustion.

Advice for firefighters

This material will burn although it is not easily ignited. See Section 7 for proper handling and storage. For

fires involving this material, do not enter any enclosed or confined fire space without proper protective

equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus.

Accidental release measures

Clean up spill as soon as possible, observing precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use

appropriate techniques such as applying non-combustible absorbent materials or pumping. Where feasible

and appropriate, remove contaminated soil and dispose of in a manner consistent with applicable

requirements. Place other contaminated materials in disposable containers and dispose of in a manner

consistent with applicable requirements. Report spills to local authorities as appropriate or required.

Handling and storage

Precautionary Measures: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. If this material is heated above 49C

(120F) thermal burns can result from accidental contact with skin or eyes. Wear appropriate personal

protective equipment if engineering controls or work practices are not adequate to prevent contact. Some

heated materials may release fumes that are unpleasant and produce nausea and irritation of the eyes and

respiratory tract. Use in a well-ventilated area. Do not taste or swallow. Wash thoroughly after handling.

Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling this

material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not, by themselves,

be sufficient. Review all operations which have the potential of generating and accumulating an

electrostatic charge and/or a flammable atmosphere (including tank and container filling, splash filling, tank

cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading, filtering, mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations) and

use appropriate mitigating procedures.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Eye/Face Protection: No special eye protection is normally required. Where splashing is possible, wear

safety glasses with side shields as a good safety practice.

Skin Protection: No special protective clothing is normally required. Where splashing is possible, select

protective clothing depending on operations conducted, physical requirements and other substances in the

workplace. Suggested materials for protective gloves include: Nitrile Rubber, Silver Shield, Viton.

Respiratory Protection: No respiratory protection is normally required.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity: May react with strong acids or strong oxidizing agents, such as chlorates, nitrates,

peroxides, etc.

Chemical Stability: This material is considered stable under normal ambient and anticipated storage

and handling conditions of temperature and pressure.

Possibility of hazardous reactions: Hazardous polymerization will not occur.

Conditions to Avoid: Do not heat above flash point.

Incompatible materials to avoid: Not applicable

Hazardous decomposition products: None known (None expected)

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Use material for its intended purpose or recycle if possible. This material, if it must be discarded, may meet

the criteria of a hazardous waste as defined by international, country, or local laws and regulations.

In accordance with European Waste Catalogue (E.W.C.) the codification is the following: 07 07 99.
