Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Using appropriate personal protective equipment, move

exposed subject to fresh air. If breathing is difficult or

ceases; ensure and maintain ventilation. Give oxygen as

appropriate. The exposed subject should be kept warm and at

rest. Obtain medical attention in cases of known or possible

over exposure, or with symptoms including chest pain,

difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness or other adverse

effects, which may be immediate or delayed.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash immediately with clean and gently flowing water.

Continue for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention.

Emergency measure - Skin: Using appropriate personal protective equipment, remove

contaminated clothing and flush exposed area with large

amounts of water. Obtain medical attention if skin reaction

occurs, which may be immediately or delayed.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Never attempt to induce vomiting. Do not attempt to give any

solid or liquid by month if the exposed subject is

unconcious or semi-conscious. Wash out the mouth with water.

If the exposed subject is fully concious, give plenty of

water to drink. Obtain medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: No special requirements needed. water is recommended for

fires involving packaging.

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

a fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon and nitrogen

oxides).

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Eye Protection: wear approved cover goggles if eye contact

is possible. In addition, a face shield is recommended.

Gloves: the selection of gloves for a specific activity must

be based on the materials's properties and on possible

permeation and degradation that may occur under the

circumstances of use. Glove selection must take into account

any solvents and other hazards present. Potential allergic

reactions can occur with certain glove materials (e.g latex)

and therefore these should be avoided. Care must be

excercised if insufficient data are available and further

guidance should be sought from your local EHS department.

Respirators; if respiratory protective equipment (RPE) is

used, the type of RPE will depend upon air concentrations

present, required protection factor as well as hazards,

physical properties and warning properties of substances

present. RPE should provide full face protection. Follow

local regulations for repirator use in the workplace.

Other Equipment or procedure: wear appropriate clothing to

avoid skin contact. An eye wash station should be available.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Personal Precautions: Instruct all personnel not involved in

clean up operations to keep at a designated safe distance.

Avoid dust generation.

Environmental precautions: Do not allow this material to

enter surface drainage systems, sewer and poorly ventilated

areas. If spill is out-doors, cover with plastic sheet to

minimise spreading or contact with rain.

Clean -up Method: Collect and place it in a suitable,

properly labelled container for recovery or disposal. After

all solid or absorbent material has been collected, the area

should be vacuumed with HEPA filter-equipped apparatus.

Decontamination Procedure: No specific decontamination or

detoxification procedures have been identified for this

material. Consider use of water, detegent solutions, or

other soluble solvents for clean-up and decontamination

operations.

Handling and storage

Handling: Avoid dispersion as a dust cloud. Depending upon the scale

of operation, use of appropriate exhaust ventilation is

recommended to provide routine control of fire and explosion

hazards during handling of the notified substance.

To control ignition, bond and earth all plant and equipment

to ensure that no isolated conductors are present. This is

because, isolated conductors can accumulate sufficient

electrostatic charge.

At both ambient and low humidity, this material is of

appreciable conductivity. At ambient humidity, this material

has a fast charge relaxation time while at low humidity, it

has an extremely fast charge relaxation time. However,

accumulation of electrostatic charge is considered unlikely

to occur when handled in an earthed (grounded) enviornment.

Storage: Avoid prolonged storage at elevated temperatures greater

that room temperature, approximately 20 Deg.C.

Keep test material in tightly closed containers or packages

away from moisture.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The test material is contained within two polyethylene

liners, tied with plastic tie wraps. The double bagged liner

is contained with a cardboard keg. The cardboard keg is

sealed. The pack size for test material is 25 Kg.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: Avoid direct sunlight conditions that might generate heat

and dispersion as dust cloud.

Chemical reaction with water: None.

Dust explosion: Minimum ignition temperation:

Dust cloud: 400 Deg. C

Powder layer: No exotherm up to 280 deg. C.

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 notification tests have shown that the substance is a

severe eye irritant. The ames test gave a positive result

but a negative in vivo mouse micronucleus study has

mitigated the mutagenic concerns posed by the substance.

The substance will not be available to the public and the

personnel involved in the manufacturing/use of this

substance are fully trained and will wear appropriate PPE

reducing the risk of exposure to the eye.

No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the

hazardous health properties.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: None 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 and

nitrogen oxides) could be formed.

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

tothe sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

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.
