Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Administrative data

First-aid measures

Emergency  measure - Inhalation:  Move to area of fresh air. If person is not breathing,  give artifical respiration.  If breathing is difficult,

administer  oxygen.

If there are signs of discomfort,  seek medical advice. Show copy of SDS or label to medical staff.

Emergency  measure - Eyes: Hold eyelids apart and rinse immediately  with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if

signs of discomfort.

Emergency  measure - Skin: Wash with water and mild soap or detergent.  If signs of discomfort,  seek medical attention. Remove contaminated

clothing and wash thoroughly  before re-use.

Emergency  measure - Ingestion: If significant  ingestion,  vomiting may be induced by trained personnel  if the person is conscious  and not experiencing

convulsions.

If ingested, seek medical advice immediately  Show copy of SDS or label to medical staff. Testing suggests that there may be a delay of an hour or more before any toxic effects

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Dry foam, powder, water spray, carbon dioxide and other extinguishing agents. No adverse reaction with normal

extinguishing agents is known. Evaluate the nature of the incident before using water. Use appropriate  medium for the underlying  cause of fire and surrounding  environment.

Product arising from burning: Complete  combustion  will lead to the formation  of carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and water. Incomplete  combustion (eg in enclosed spaces) will result in volatile organic derivatives,  nitrous oxides and carbon monoxide. Product determined  by test: N

Protective  equipment:  Full protective equipment  is recommended including self contained  breathing apparatus,  chemical and flame resistant protective clothing, gloves, goggles, face protection and boots.

Accidental release measures

Emergency  measures in case of spillage: Minimise dust formation by collecting  spilled material using a wet mop, damp sponge or wet/dry HEPA vacuum. Place into suitably labelled containers  and dispose of for reclaimation or disposal in accordance  with local regulations.  Residues and minor spills should be contained and transferred  to suitably labelled containers  for approved  disposal.

Protective  clothing should be worn including suitable eye protection,  respirator,  gloves and coveralls.

Handling and storage

Handling: Environmental controls such as local exhaust ventilation  must be in place to minimise dust levels. In addition, employees  should use the necessary  personal protective equipment  (PPE) to reduce their risk of exposure, such as respiratory  protection  to EN 136, coveralls (or full air suits conforming  to EN368), latex or other impermeable gloves conforming  to EN374 and safety glasses. Rubber, neoprene or other gloves may be required if solvents, corrosives  or other chemicals  are present. Equipment  should be bonded and earthed to control static charges when handling the powder. Powder handling equipment  such as dust collectors,  dryers and mills may require additional  protection,  such as explosion  venting. Storage: Store in UN approved  fibre drums. Ensure the containers  are stored upright, sealed, bunded and suitably labelled in a cool well ventilated place. Keep away from incompatible substances  such as acids, oxiding agents and ketones. Packaging  of the substance  and or preparation:  The substance  is packed in UN approved polyethylene lined fibre containers.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Environmental controls such as local exhaust ventilation  must be in place to minimise dust levels. In addition, employees  should use the necessary  personal protective equipment  (PPE) to reduce their risk of exposure,  such as respiratory  protection to EN 136, coveralls (or full air suits conforming  to EN368), latex or other impermeable gloves conforming  to EN374 and safety glasses. Rubber, neoprene  or other gloves may be required if solvents, corrosives  or other chemicals  are present

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: Avoid contact with strong oxidising and reducing agents.

Chemical reaction with water: The substance  appears to hydrolyse slowly in water at high

temperatures, but this is not thought to result in the formation of hazardous  products. There is no violent reaction with water.

Dust explosion:  Material Exhibits strong explosion characteristics if ignited as a dust cloud. The substance  is also very

susceptible  to accumulating static charges during handling, and uncontrolled  static discharge  may provide a source of ignition under certain conditions,  due to low minimum ignition energy. Provide suitable bonding and grounding  for containers  and process equipment  to control static charges. Powder handling equipment  such as dust collectors,  dryers and mills may require additional  protective measures.

Dust explosion determined  by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility  of recovery/recycling: The substance  is consumed  during use and there is no opportunity  for recovery or recycling. Industry - Possibility  of neutralisation: Hydrolysing  the substance  will destroy it. No known method of neutralisation is known.

Industry - Possibility  of destruction:  controlled discharge:  Trace quantities are destroyed by biological oxidation in waste water treatment plants.

Industry - Possibility  of destruction  - incineration:  This is recommended for large quantities and solvent wastes. Closed system incinerators  with scrubbers should be used in compliance  with local and national legislation.

Industry - Possibility  of destruction  - water purification:  Trace quantities in water can be treated in secondary  biological WWTP before discharge  to municipal treatment works. Industry - Possibility  of destruction  - other: No other recommended methods of disposal.

Public at large - Possibility  of recovery/recycling: Not applicable  to the general public.
