Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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. Seek medical attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Remove contact lenses immediately. Wash with copious amounts
of water for at least 15 minutes. Do not rub eyes. Seek
medical attention immediately.
Emergency measure - Skin: Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Remove contaminated
clothing. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek medical assistance.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a
fire, evolving carbon and sulfur oxides. However, there is
no experimental information to identify the combustible
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 persnnel from immediate vicinity.

Eliminate ignition sources and ventilate.


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
vermiculite or diatomaceous earth). Carefully tranfer the
spillage to waste containers. 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 or landfill in
accordance with all Federal, State and 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 by skin and
eye contact.


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 prEN374

Chemical resistant clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard prEN166


The material is weighed out using local exhaust ventilation
(fume cupboard) and the operators wear a P3 dust mask.


The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a
minimum.

Storage: Store in a tightly closed container in a dry, cool,
ventilated area. Ventilation should be designed in
accordance with good engineering practices.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Fibre-board kegs (100 litre) lined with polythene.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None known.

Chemical reaction with water: None which is hazardous.

Dust explosion: There is a potential dust explosion hazard from this organic
solid - damp down with water.

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 wste material will be
disposed of by incineration. In principle, it may be
possible to recover larger spillages of uncontaminated
material for subsequent use.

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


The dust hazard will be minimised by handling techniques and
by damping with water.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended.

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
must be scrubbed, because noxious fumes (eg carbon and
sulfur oxides) could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to
the sewage system or the aquoeus environment. However,
adverse effects on sewage treatment systems would be
unlikely.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None
