Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: In case of unconsciousness place patient in recovery

position and obtain immediate medical attention. Supply

fresh air.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Irrigate open eye for 15 minutes under running water. Obtain

immediate medical attention.

Emergency measure - Skin: Immediately wash with soap and water and rinse thoroughly.

Seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting, call for medical help immediately.

Rinse out mouth and drink plenty of water.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray or carbon dioxide extinguisher should be used.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon, nitrogen and

sulphur oxides). 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.

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 or landfill 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.

The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a

minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Keep away from sources of ignition.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The preparation is packed into either one gallon (3.78

litre) or one quart (0.946 litre) bottles, which are then

put in a cardboard box.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: The substance is highly flammable, hence keep substance away

from any possible sources of ignition.

Chemical reaction with water: None which is hazardous.

Dust explosion: There is no potential for dust explosion as the substance is

imported at 6% in a preparation.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery from minor spillages or accidental discharge is not

economically or technically feasible, and such waste

material will be disposed of by incineration or landfill. In

principle, it may be possible to recover larger spillages

or uncontaminated material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: None known

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

should be scrubbed, because noxious fumes (eg carbon,

nitrogen and sulphur oxides) could be formed.

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: Not applicable.

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

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