Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 person to fresh air.  If effects occur, consult a physician.    

Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash immediately and continuously with flowing water for at least 30 minutes.  Remove contact lenses after the first 5 minutes and continue washing. Obtain prompt medical consultation, preferably from an ophthalmologist.  Suitable emergency eye wash facility should be immediately available.  

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove material from skin immediately by washing with soap and plenty of water.  Remove contaminated clothing and shoes while washing.  Seek medical attention if irritation persists. Wash clothing before reuse.  Discard items which cannot be decontaminated, including leather articles such as shoes, belts and watchbands.  Suitable emergency safety shower facility should be available in work area.  

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Give one cup (8 ounces or 240 ml) of water or milk if available and transport to a medical facility. Do not give anything by mouth unless the person is fully conscious.  Seek medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water fog or fine spray.  Dry chemical fire extinguishers.  Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers.  Foam.  Alcohol resistant foams (ATC type) are preferred. General purpose synthetic foams (including AFFF) or protein foams may function, but will be less effective.  

Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire.

Product arising from burning: During a fire, smoke may contain the original material in addition to combustion products of varying composition which may be toxic and/or irritating.  Combustion products may include and are not limited to:  Carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide.  

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, trousers, boots, and gloves).  Avoid contact with this material during fire fighting operations. If contact is likely, change to full chemical resistant fire fighting clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus.  If this is not available, wear full chemical resistant clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus and fight fire from a remote location.  For protective equipment in post-fire or non-fire clean-up situations, refer to the relevant sections.  

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: (Small spills) Contain spilled material if possible.  Collect in suitable and properly labeled containers.  (Large spills) Dike area to contain spill.  Pump into suitable and properly labeled containers.

Evacuate area.  Only trained and properly protected personnel must be involved in clean-up operations.  Keep upwind of spill.  Ventilate area of leak or spill.  Use appropriate safety equipment.

Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or groundwater.

Handling and storage

Handling: Do not get in eyes.  Do not swallow.  Avoid breathing vapor.  Avoid contact with skin and clothing.  Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.  Wash thoroughly after handling.  Keep container closed.  Use with adequate ventilation

Personal Protection

Eye/Face protection: Use chemical goggles.  Chemical goggles should be consistent with EN 166 or equivalent.  

Skin protection:

Use protective clothing chemically resistant to this material.  Selection of specific items such as face shield, boots, apron, or full body suit will depend on the task.  

Hand protection: Use chemical resistant gloves classified under Standard EN374: Protective gloves against chemicals and micro-organisms.  Examples of preferred glove barrier materials include:  Butyl rubber.  Chlorinated polyethylene.  Natural rubber ("latex").  Polyethylene.  Ethyl vinyl alcohol laminate ("EVAL").  Examples of acceptable glove barrier materials include:  Nitrile/butadiene rubber ("nitrile" or "NBR").  Polyvinyl alcohol ("PVA").  Polyvinyl chloride ("PVC" or "vinyl").  Viton.  When prolonged or frequently repeated contact may occur, a glove with a protection class of 5 or higher (breakthrough time greater than 240 minutes according to EN 374) is recommended.  When only brief contact is expected, a glove with a protection class of 3 or higher (breakthrough time greater  than 60 minutes according to EN 374) is recommended.  NOTICE: The selection of a specific glove for a particular application and duration of use in a workplace should also take into account all relevant workplace factors such as, but not limited to: Other chemicals which may be handled, physical requirements (cut/puncture protection, dexterity, thermal protection), potential body reactions to glove materials, as well as the instructions/specifications provided by the glove supplier.  

Respiratory Protection: Respiratory protection should be worn when there is a potential to exceed the exposure limit requirements or guidelines.  If there are no applicable exposure limit requirements or guidelines, wear respiratory protection when adverse effects, such as respiratory irritation or discomfort have been experienced, or where indicated by your risk assessment process.  For most conditions no respiratory protection should be needed;  however, if discomfort is experienced, use an approved air-purifying respirator.  Use the following CE approved air-purifying respirator:  Organic vapor cartridge with a particulate pre-filter, type AP2.

Ingestion: Use good personal hygiene.  Do not consume or store food in the work area.  Wash hands before smoking or eating.  

Engineering controls

Ventilation: Use local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below exposure limit requirements or guidelines.  If there are no applicable exposure limit requirements or guidelines, general ventilation should be sufficient for most operations.  Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary for some operations.

Storage: Do not store in:  Mild steel.  Avoid contact with air (oxygen).  Store away from direct sunlight.  

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: At first 55 gal drums, ultimately isotankers.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use. Thermally stable at typical use temperatures.

Avoid contact with air (oxygen).  Exposure to elevated temperatures can cause product to decompose.  Avoid direct sunlight.  

Avoid contact with oxidizing materials.  Avoid contact with:  Strong acids.  Strong bases.  

Polymerization will not occur by itself.  Polymerization can be catalyzed by:  rust, strong acids, strong bases.  

Chemical reaction with water: Based on the molecular structures and on an experiment, it

was concluded that UNOXOL 3,4 Dialdehyde and its reaction

products are incapable of developing a dangerous amount of

(flammable) gas(es) in contact with air, damp air or water.

Dust explosion: not applicable
