Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Remove patient to fresh air. Obtain medical advice if
symptoms develop.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Irrigate affected eyes with running water for at least 15
minutes with the eyelids held open if necessary. Seek
medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash affected skin throughly
with water for at least 10 minutes. If irritation develops
obtain medical attention.


Contaminated clothing should be washed before re-use.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Small fires: Carbon dioxide or dry powder

Large fires: Foam

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 and hydrogen chloride).

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 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 substance containers.


Clean the spillage area with water.

Dispose of waste material in accordance with local
regulations by incineration.

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.


A full air supplied suit should be worn when handling the
material.


When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled
appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.

Such protective equipment should conform, at least, 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, 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 EN149 FFP1.

Operators should also shower before changing into normal
clothing.

These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry well ventilated area away from
foodstuffs.


Keep containers tightly closed when not in use to prevent
moisture ingress.


Avoid contact when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: UN approved lined mild steel drum (Duttenhofer)

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None reported.

Chemical reaction with water: None reported.

Dust explosion: There is a potential dust explosion hazard with this organic
powder.

The material can form explosible dust clouds with a low
pressure rise (St classification = 1). The minimum ignition
energy is greater than 350mJ, which means that it is
difficult to ignite an explosible dust cloud.

Dust explosion determined by test: Y

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Discharge to the environment will be minimal. 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 for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The dust hazard will be minimised by appropriate handling
and storage.


No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the
hazardous environmental properties.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with
inert material (eg. sand or soil) are disposed of by
incineration. No waste substance is sent to landfill.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance is disposed of by incineration by burning
under controlled conditions at a licensed on-site waste
treatment processor in accordance with local regulations.
Stack gases should be scrubbed, because noxious fumes (eg.
carbon, nitrogen and sulphur oxides and hydrogen chloride)
could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not be discharged directly to the
sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable, the substance will not enter the public
domain.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Not applicable
