Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: If inhaled, provide fresh air, warmth, rest and seek medical

advice.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash out eyes thoroughly with plenty of water for fifteen

minutes. If necessary, seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Skin: Immediately wash contaminated skin with soap and large

quantities of water for fifteen minutes. If necessary, seek

medical advice.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting. Drink plenty of water and if

necessary seek medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray, foam or fog, carbon dioxide.

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

a fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon and nitrogen

oxides and chlorine containing compounds).

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing

apparatus must be worn.

Fight the fire from a safe distance or protected location.

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. 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 substance containers.

Clean the spillage area with plenty of soap and water.

Dispose of waste material in accordance with local

regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used under

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 protective clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166.

Furthermore, when respiratory protective equipment has to be

used, it must be capable of adequately controlling

exposure, be suitable for the purpose, and conform to the

appropriate international or national standards, such as a

dust mask conforming to EN136.

These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool dry place away from sources of ignition.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Fibre drums and double plastic bags.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None specified.

Chemical reaction with water: None specified.

Dust explosion: The substance is an organic powder, and as such has the

potential to form explosive dust clouds when airborne.

However, the use of appropriate bonding and grounding

prevents the potential for dust explosions.

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. In principle,

it may be possible to recover larger spillages of

uncontaminated material by a recrystallisation process, for

subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The notification tests have shown that the substance is

a skin sensitiser.

No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the

hazardous health properties.

The dust hazard will be minimised by bonding and grounding

as required to control static charges. Powder handling

equipment such as dust collectors, dryers and mills will

have additional protective measures in place as required,

such as explosion venting.

The notification tests have shown that the substance is

dangerous for the environment, based on low water

solubility, log Pow and non-readily biodegradable. No

chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the

hazardous environmental properties.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not normally recommended. However, contaminated containers

or spillages of solutions mixed with inert material (eg.

sand or soil) may be disposed of by incineration in

accordance with local regulations.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Incineration is recommended for larger quantities of waste.

National and local regulations must be observed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to

the sewage system or the aqueous environment. However,

adverse effects on sewage treatment systems would be

unlikely.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None specified.

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.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: None known.
