Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: If inhaled, provide fresh air, warmth, rest and seek medical
advice.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash out eyes thoroughly with plenty of water for fifteen
minutes. If necessary, seek medical advice.
Emergency measure - Skin: Immediately wash contaminated skin with soap and large
quantities of water for fifteen minutes. If necessary, seek
medical advice.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting. Drink plenty of water and if
necessary seek medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: To suit local surroundings (e.g. water spray, carbon
dioxide, foam, dry chemical powder).

Do not use water jet.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a
fire, evolving noxious fumes (e.g. carbon and nitrogen
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 conforming to
the relevant national or international standards, as
mentioned in section 2.3.10.



Avoid dust formation. 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 plenty of soap and water.



Dispose of waste material in accordance with local
regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling: Engineering controls in the form of closed system i.e
isolators or closed system charging are provided at the
reactor.

When they are not sufficient to control dust exposures
approved respiratory protection to EN 136 standard should be
worn. For manufacturing areas skin protection should be
provided in the form of coveralls or full air suits along
with impermeable gloves. Gloves should be changed regularly
and removed after overt contamination. Rubber, neoprene or
other gloves may be required if solvents, corrosives or
other chemicals are present. Chemical safety glasses should
be worn if a full face respirator is not being worn.

Storage: The substance can be stored at room temperature. No special
storage requirements need to be in place for this substance.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The substance is packaged in UN approved fibre drums.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None known.

Chemical reaction with water: None which is hazardous.

Dust explosion: Material exhibits explosion characteristics if ignited as a
dust cloud. 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 (e.g.
explosion venting). Nitrogen blanketing is required for
operations at the manufacturing scale. Use explosion-proof
electrical equipment and eliminate possible ignition sources
such as electrical sparks, flame, welding, or cutting
operations.

Dust explosion determined by test: Y

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 incineration. In principle,
it may be possible to recover larger spillages of
uncontaminated material by a recrystallisation process, for
subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The notification tests have shown that the substance is
acutely harmful if swallowed.


No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the
hazardous health properties.


The dust hazard will be minimised by bonding and grounding
as required to control static charges. Powder handling
equipment such as dust collectors, dryers and mills will
have additional protective measures in place as required,
such as explosion venting.

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
incinceration in accordance with local regulations.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Incineration is recommended for larger quantities of waste.
A closed-cycle incinerator with scrubbers should be
employed. National and local regulations must be observed.

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. Trace quantities in aqueous washes can be treated
in secondary biological WWTP before discharge to municipal
treatment works.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.
