Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of first aid measures 


If inhaled: If breathed in, move person into fresh air.
                If symptoms persist, call a physician.
In case of skin contact: Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.
                                    Wash off with plenty of water.
                                    If symptoms persist, call a physician.
In case of eye contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 5 minutes.
                                  Remove contact lenses.
                                  If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.
If swallowed: If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious).
                    Call a physician immediately.


Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed


Risk: no information available 


Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: Water mist
                                            Dry powder
                                            Foam
                                            Carbon dioxide (CO2)
                                            Sand
                                            Aqueous film forming foam (AFFF).
                                            Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.


Unsuitable extinguishing media: Water spray jet


Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Hazardous combustion products: Carbon oxides
                                                Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
                                                Hydrogen chloride gas


Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
                                                                   Firefighters must wear fire-resistant personal protective equipment.
Further information: In the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray.
                              Avoid dust formation.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures


Personal precautions: Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
                                Avoid breathing dust.
                                Avoid dust formation.
                                Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.


Environmental precautions


Should not be released into the environment. 


Methods and material for containment and cleaning up


Methods for cleaning up: Large spills: Sweep up or vacuum with HEPA filter or via wet cleaning into suitable containers for disposal.
                                                       Pick up and arrange without creating dust. Keep in properly labelled containers.
                                     Small spills: Moisten a towel, cover the spill, pick up the spill or use HEPA vacuum.
                                     Large spills + Small spills: Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Treat recovered material as described in the
section "Disposal considerations".


 

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling


Advice on safe handling: Ensure all equipment is electrically grounded before beginning transfer operations.
                                    To avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat.
                                    Use personal protective equipment as required.
                                    Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.
                                    Avoid inhalation, ingestion and contact with skin and eyes.
                                    Avoid formation of dust and aerosols.


Advice on protection against fire and explosion: Take measures to prevent the build-up of electrostatic charge.
                                                                      During processing, dust may form explosive mixture in air


Hygiene measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.


Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities


Requirements for storage areas and containers: To maintain product quality, do not store in heat or direct sunlight. Store in original container. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep refrigerated.


Recommended storage temperature: 2 - 8 °C

Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering measures
All personal protective equipment should be based on a risk assessment. Consult a Environment Health Safety expert if necessary.
Engineering controls should be used as the primary means to control possible exposures. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep exposure levels below recommended exposure limits.


Personal protective equipment


Eye protection : Safety glasses with side-shields
Hand protection Material : Nitrile rubber,  Impervious gloves
                                      Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and ofspecial workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact).
Skin and body protection: closed work clothing
Respiratory protection: Engineering controls should always be the primary method of controlling exposures. If respiratory protective equipment is needed for certain activities, the type, as well as the corresponding protection factor, will depend upon the risk assessment and air concentrations, hazards, physical and warning properties of substances present.


                                  Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/national standards.
                                  No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required.


Protective measures: The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance
at the specific workplace.
