Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush eyes with copious amounts of water and seek medical

attention.

Emergency measure - Skin: Wash affected area with soap and water.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek medical attention immediately.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Extinguishing media: alcohol resistant foam, dry chemical or

carbon dioxide. Water should be used to keep container cool.

Product arising from burning: Ammonia, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, oxides of

nitrogen.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Wear protective clothing and self-contained breathing

apparatus.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: S

mall quantities: flush to chemical or

municipal sewer leading to a treatment facility.

Larger

quantities: absorb into clay, sand or earth, place in

appropiate containers and dispose by incineration or take to

chemically secure land disposal site. Prevent spillage

directly entering surface water, drains or navigable waters.

Wear appropriate respiratory and skin protective equipment

whilst containing spillage.

Handling and storage

Handling: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear chemical goggles or

face shield, butyl rubber type boots, apron and gloves. Use

local ventilation to control vapour at source. Use full face

supplied air respirator as required. Remove contaminated

clothing and launder before re-use. Workers should change

clothing before leaving work site.

Storage: Store and handle in enclosed system. Store away from

excessive temperatures and direct sunlight. Purge opened

containers with nitrogen prior to resealing. Earth all

equipment, and surround with spillage tray or similar

device.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 1 tonne ISO containers or 20 tonne bulk tanker.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear chemical goggles or face shield, butyl rubber type boots, apron and gloves. Use

local ventilation to control vapour at source. Use full face supplied air respirator as required. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before re-use. Workers should change clothing before leaving work site.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: Incompatible with oxidising materials. Avoid exposure to

copper and brass. Incompatible with most rubber and

elastomeric compounds. Protect from air to avoid

degradation.

Chemical reaction with water: None reported.

Dust explosion: Not applicable

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Plants using the substance will normally have toe walls in

critical areas to contain leaks and spills. Some plants

would have a toe wall round the entire substance unit thus

permitting recovery and re-use for a large spill or disposal

in the event of a small spill (There should be little scope

for loss in normal usage: the substance is used in a closed

loop absorbing acid gas from a vapour stream in one vessel

and releasing it by scrubbing in another).
