Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

General advice:
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Risk of ignition. In case of splashes, remove contaminated clothing and plunge it into water immediately.

Inhalation:
Inhalation of vapours/mists : Move to fresh air. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. In case of persistent problems : Hospitalise.

Skin contact:
Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water.

Eye contact:
Wash immediately, abundantly and thoroughly with water. If irritation persists, consult an ophthalmologist.

Ingestion:
Risk of severe pulmonary problems in case of accidental aspiration Do NOT induce vomiting. If swallowed, call a poison control centre or doctor immediately.

Protection of first-aiders:
In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.

Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary : No data available.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray, Carbon dioxide (CO2), (on small fires)

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Flammable liquid, the product burns violently (protect people from possible projections), Contact with combustible material may cause fire.
Through thermal decomposition, formation of very reactive free radicals.
Thermal decomposition giving flammable and toxic products: Tertiobutanol, Carbon oxides (by combustion)

Advice for firefighters:
Specific methods:
Fight fire from a distance (more than 15 m). Containers/tanks should be cooled with water spray. In case of fire nearby, remove exposed containers. Prohibit all sources of sparks and ignition - Do not smoke.

Special protective actions for fire-fighters:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Prohibit all sources of sparks and ignition - Do not smoke. Avoid contact with skin and eyes and inhalation of vapours. Evacuate non-essential staff and those not equipped with individual protection apparatus. Use personal protective equipment. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.

Environmental precautions:
Do not release into the environment. Do not let product enter drains. Dam up with sand or inert earth (do not use combustible materials).

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:
Methods for cleaning up:
After cleaning, flush away traces with water. Recover waste water for processing later.

Recovery:
Shovel into suitable container for disposal. Small quantities : Soak up with inert absorbent material (Vermiculite, Clean sand). Never return spills in original containers for re-use. Do not confine. No sparking tools should be used.

Elimination: Please refer to the section "disposal considerations".

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:
Technical measures/Precautions:
Storage and handling precautions applicable to products: Organic Peroxides Liquid. Flammable. Harmful. Dangerous for the environment
Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at machinery. Provide showers, eye-baths. Provide water supplies near the point of use. Provide selfcontained breathing apparatus nearby. Provide fire-blanket nearby. Provide electrical earthing of equipment.

Safe handling advice:
Strictly limit the quantities of product in the work area to those which are absolutely necessary for the work in hand. Handle and open container with care (risk of overpressurization in containers). Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Protect from contamination. Never return any product to the container from which it was originally removed (risk of decomposition). Never return unused material to storage receptacle. Prohibit all sources of sparks and ignition - Do not smoke. Never mix peroxides directly with accelerators (risk of explosion). Add each component separately to the resin. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.

Hygiene measures:
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes and inhalation of vapours. When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
Wash hands after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Store in well insulated area (peroxide area) away from other substances. Storage buildings must be built and equipped so as not to exceed the maximum proscribed temperature limit. Use non-combustible construction materials. Keep tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Do not smoke. Store in original container. Use only very clean containers and equipment free from traces of impurities. Never return unused material to storage receptacle. Do not reuse empty packaging to store other products.
Provide earthing and safe electrical equipment. Provide a catch-tank in a bunded area. Provide impermeable floor. Consult ARKEMA before storage design.

Storage period: < 6 Months,
Storage temperature: < 30 °C (to maintain the technical properties of the product).

Incompatible products:
Strong oxidizing agents, Powerful reducers, Acids, Bases, Amines, transition metal salts, Sulphur compounds, Rust, ash, dusts (risk of selfaccelerating exothermic decomposition)

Packaging material:
Recommended: High density polyethylene (HDPE), Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), Stainless steel
To be avoided: Ordinary metals (ordinary steel), copper, rubber (natural or synthetic), Glass - Stoneware (risk of contents spurting or spraying out if container ruptures due to overpressurization)

Exposure controls / personal protection

General protective measures:
Ensure sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work areas.

Personal protective equipment:
Respiratory protection:
In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. In the case of hazardous fumes, wear self contained breathing apparatus.

Hand protection: Gloves
Fluorinated rubber

Eye/face protection: Safety glasses/goggles and face-mask (during discharge)

Skin and body protection: Protective suit

Environmental exposure controls: Please refer to section "Accidental release measures".

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity & Chemical stability:
The product is stable under normal handling and storage conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions:
None under normal conditions of use.

Conditions to avoid:
Temperatures above 30 °C (to maintain the technical properties of the product). Keep away from heat and sources of ignition (risk of exothermic decomposition).

Incompatible materials to avoid:
Strong oxidizing agents, Reducing agents, Strong acids, strong bases, Sulphur compounds, heavy metal compounds, heavy metals, rust, Ash, dusts (risk of self-accelerating exothermic decomposition).

Hazardous decomposition products:
Through thermal decomposition, formation of very reactive free radicals.
Thermal decomposition giving flammable and toxic products: Tertiobutanol, Carbon oxides (by combustion).

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment:

Disposal of product: Do not dispose of waste into sewer. Eliminate the product by incineration after dilution in a suitable flammable solvent (in accordance with local and national regulations). Amount of active oxygen must be below 1%.

Disposal of packaging: Do not release into the environment. Destroy packaging by incineration at an approved waste disposal site (in accordance with local and national regulations).
