Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Symptomatic treatment. Seek immediate

medical attention if irritation occurs.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Immediately rinse eyes with plenty of water for at least

five minutes while holding eyelids open. Rinse eyes for

longer if there is any indication of residual chemical

remaining in the eyes.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash the affected area with

plenty of soap and water.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Symptomatic treatment. Dilute by drinking water or milk. Do

not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water, carbon dioxide, dry foam.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon oxides, hydrocarbons

and low molecular weight oligomers). However, there is no

experimental evidence to support the anticipated combustion

products.

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 overalls and chemical resistant gloves and goggles and

a respiratory mask.

Blanket large spills with foam to minimise the fire hazard

and reduce vapourisation. Absorb spillages with a suitable

inert material  (eg. sand or soil). Carefully transfer the

spillage to waste containers. Containers filled with waste

material must be labelled in the same way as the original

containers.

Prevent flow to public sewer or water system. Contain by

diking. Clean the spillage area with water and detergent.

Dispose of waste material in accordance with local

regulations by incineration or landfill as specified in

section 6.1.3.

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 by

ingestion.

Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the

substance. Effective general ventilation must be used, and

local exhaust ventilation if necessary.

When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled

appropriate personal protective equipment, such as chemical

resistant gloves and goggles, overalls and a respiratory

mask should be worn. Such protective equipment should

conform to the appropriate international or national

standards.

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.

Bond and ground the containers when transferring the

substance and take precautions to prevent static discharge

which could ignite vapours.

These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from

sources of ignition, heat and direct sunlight.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use and upright

to prevent leakage.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 200L UN 1A1 steel drums.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: Vapours may be heavier than air, travel along the ground or

be moved by ventilation and ignited by flame, sparks or

ignition sources. Emptied containers may contain residual

vapour. Hot vapours or mists may be susceptible to

spontaneous combustion.

Polymerisation will occur with peroxides or other free

radical generating chemicals.

Chemical reaction with water: None which is hazardous.

Dust explosion: Not relevant for a liquid.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

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 or landfill. 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

acutely harmful by ingestion. No chemical treatment is

practicable to neutralise the hazardous health properties.

The potential vapour ignition hazard is neutralised by

appropriate storage and handling techniques, such as

avoiding ignition sources and bonding and grounding

containers to avoid static discharge.

No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the

hazardous environmental properties.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers  or spillages 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

oxides, hydrocarbons and low molecular weight oligomers)

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.
