Data platform availability banner - registered substances factsheets

Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Diss Factsheets

Administrative data

First-aid measures

General: Wash clothing before reuse.

Eye contact: Wash with plenty of water.

Skin contact: Wash with plenty of water.

Inhalation: Remove patient to fresh air.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media: Water spray, foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide

Exposure hazards: None known

Combustion products: None known

Protective equipment: Firefighters, and others exposed, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Equipment should be thoroughly decontaminated after use.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions: Use personal protection recommended in section 8 of the Safety Data Sheet.

Environmental precautions: Keep out of drains and water courses.

Methods for cleaning up: Contain large spills with dikes and transfer the material to appropriate containers for reclamation or

disposal. Absorb remaining material or small spills with an inert material and then place in a chemical waste container. Flush spill area with water.

Handling and storage

Handling: Good industrial practice in housekeeping and personal hygiene should be followed. Avoid breathing vapour or mist.

Engineering measures: Provide natural or mechanical ventilation to control exposure levels below airborne exposure limits. If practical, use local mechanical exhaust ventilation at sources of air contamination such as processing equipment.

Storage: Stable under normal conditions of handling and storage.

Respiratory protection: Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Use approved respiratory protection equipment (e.g. combination filter A/P2) when airborne exposure limits are exceeded. Consult the respirator manufacturer to determine the appropriate type of equipment for a given application. Observe respirator use limitations specified by the manufacturer.

Hand protection: Although this product does not present a significant skin concern, minimize skin contamination by following good industrial practice. Wearing protective gloves is recommended.

Eye protection: Does not cause significant eye irritation or eye toxicity requiring special protection. Use good industrial practice to avoid eye contact.

Skin protection: Although this product does not present a significant skin concern, minimize skin contamination by following good industrial practice. Wash contaminated skin thoroughly after handling.
