Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Remove from exposure area to fresh air immediately. Perform
artificial respiration if necessary. Keep person warm and
at rest. Treat symptomatically and seek immediate medical
attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse eyes immediately with copious quantities of water or
normal saline solution, occasionally lifting upper and lower
lids, until no evidence of the substance remains (at least
15 to 20 minutes). Seek immediate medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash
affected area with mild detergent and copious amounts of
water until no evidence of the substance remains (at least
15 to 20 minutes). Seek medical attention.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray, dry chemical, foam or carbon dioxide
extinguishers may be used.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a
fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg oxides of carbon,
phosphorus, nitrogen and sulfur). 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.

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 by damping down with water. 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 containers.


Clean the spillage area with water and detergent.


Dispose of waste material by incineration in accordance with
local regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used in
conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with
any local regulations in order to avoid exposure.


Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the
substance.


When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled
appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.
Such protective equipment should conform to the appropriate
international or national standards as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard EN374

Chemical resistant clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166


When necessary appropriate respiratory protection should be
used. e.g. a dust mask conforming to EN149 FFP1/a vapour
mask conforming to EN405 FFA1.


The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a
minimum.

Storage: Keep containers upright and tightly closed when not in use.
Keep away from heat and sunlight. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated location.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 200 litre polyethylene drum conforming to UN
recommendations.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: The substance is explosive when subjected to thermal strain
therefore all sources of ignition/heat, sparks and open
flames should be avoided. Adequate ventilation and clean-up
procedures should be maintained to minimise dust
accumulation.

Chemical reaction with water: None reported.

Dust explosion: There is a potential dust explosion hazard from this organic
powder.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the
hazardous health properties.

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
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.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to
the sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: The substance may be disposed of by landfill of printed
documents and spent cartridges.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Not applicable.
