Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 to fresh air. If breathing but unconscious, place in
the recovery position. If breathing has stopped, apply
artificial respiration. If heartbeat absent give external
cardiac compression. Monitor breathing and pulse. Obtain
medical attention immediately.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush eye with water. If irritation occurs, obtain medical
attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin with water using
soap if available. Obtain medical attention if irritation
occurs.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Obtain medical attention immediately.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Foam, water spray or fog. Dry chemical powder, carbon
dioxide, sand or earth may be used for small fires only.

Product arising from burning: Oxides of Carbon

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.



Absorb spillages of solutions with a suitable inert material
(eg. sand or soil). Carefully transfer the spillage to
waste containers. Containers filled with waste material must
be labelled in the same way as the original

substance containers.


For large spills, dike spilled material or otherwise contain
the material to ensure run-off does not reach a waterway.

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.


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

Such protective equipment should conform 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, when 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
powered air respirator conforming to EN12941.


These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store tanks away from heat and other sources of ignition. Do
not store in unsuitable, unlabelled or incorrectly labelled
containers.


Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, well-ventilated
place away from direct sunlight and other sources of heat
and ignition.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The substance will be imported in bulk tankers.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery from minor spillages or accidental discharge is not
economically or technically feasible, and such waste
material will be disposed of by incineration or landfill. In
principle, it may be possible to recover larger

spillages of uncontaminated material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The substance is harmful and flammable. No chemical
treatment is practicable to neutralise the hazardous
properties.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed
with inert material (eg. sand or soil) may be disposed of by
landfill at an authorised tip in accordance with local
regulations.

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
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. However,
adverse effects on sewage treatment systems would be
unlikely.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: None.
