Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, clear the airway of
the victim, start mouth to mouth respiration. If the victim
is breathing, oxygen may be given. Call a physician.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush immediately with large quantities of running water
for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart during flushing
to ensure rinsing of the entire surface of the eye and lids
with water. Obtain medical attention as soon as possible.
Emergency measure - Skin: Using a dry cloth, immediately wipe away excess material
from skin and remove all contaminated clothing and shoes.
Under a safety shower, flush all affected areas thoroughly
with large volumes of running water for at least 15
minutes. Get medical attention immediately Discard
contaminated clothing.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Immediately give several glasses of
water. The substance is corrosive. If vomiting does occur,
give fluids again. Never give fluids to an unconcious
person. Call a physician.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Recommended extinguishing agents: Dry chemical powder
pressurised with nitrogen is the most effective
extinguishing agent. Dry sand, vermiculite or carbon
dioxide may also be used
Product arising from burning: Products arising from pyrolysis: Combustion products may
contain carbon oxides, alkanes, hydrogen iodide and
aluminium oxide smoke.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: Block off the source of the spill. Extinguish fire (cf
2.3.4). Re-ignition may occur. If fire cannot be
controlled, keep a safe distance, protect adjacent property
and allow to burn until consumed.
Handling and storage
Handling: Handle in a manner appropriate for spontaneously flammable
chemicals Minimise exposure to employees by using
engineering controls (eg local exhaust ventilation,
enclosed system design, remote control) in combination with
appropriate personal protective equipment.
Storage: Keep containers closed The substance will react with air or
moisture in the air. Store under an inert atmosphere.
Containers should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated
area away from flammable materials and sources of heat or
flame. Exercise due caution to prevent damage to or leakage
from the container.

Stability and reactivity
Danger other than fire: Other dangers: The substance is flammable and reacts
vigorously with air and moisture. It is considered
pyrophoric by the paper char test.
Chemical reaction with water: Chemical reaction with water: The substance reacts
violently with water to produce octane (highly flammable),
octanol, aluminium oxide and hydrogen iodide.
Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery for reuse is not possible
Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: Dilute with a hydrocarbon (eg heptane) to less than 5%
metal alkyl and then treat with water under a nitrogen
atmosphere in a vented and agitated chamber. Allow for heat
generation and formation of flammable hydrocarbons. Conduct
water treatment in the absence of oxygen to avoid possible
ignition of flammable material. Decomposition products are
octane/octanol, iodine vapour and/or hydrogen iodide and
aluminium hydroxide.
Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended without neutralisation.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Disposal by incineration is possible by controlled feed of
air and product. Waste gas treatment to remove hydrogen
iodide/iodine and aluminium oxide smoke should be used.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not recommended without neutralisation.
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance itself will not enter the public domain.
