Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Pay attention to self-protection.

Remove victims from hazardous area. Immediately remove soiled or soaked clothing and remove it to a safe distance. Keep victim warm, in a stabilized position and covered.

Do not leave victims unattended.

If the casualty is unconscious: Place the victim in the recovery position.

Inhalation

Potential for exposure by inhalation if dusts or smoke are generated.

Move victims into fresh air.

With labored breathing: Provide with oxygen. Consult a doctor.

If the casualty is not breathing: Perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, notify emergency physician immediately.

Skin contact

Wash off affected area immediately with plenty of water.

Continue decontamination with polyethylene glycol 400 after initial rinsing with water and then wash with water and soap.

If symptoms persist, consult a physician for treatment.

Eye contact

With eye held open, thoroughly rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 10 minutes.

Consult an ophthalmologist immediately if the symptoms persist.

When dealing with caustic substances, notify emergency physician immediately (key words: burns in eye).

Ingestion

Rinse mouth.

Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.

Obtain medical attention.

When dealing with caustic substances, notify emergency physician immediately.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

The initial focus is only on the local action, possibly characterized by a progressive tissue irritation; caustic substances result in quickly progressing deep tissue damage.

In the eye, caustic dusts or smoke cause, depending on the intensity of exposure, severe irritation, destruction, and ablation of the epithelium of the conjunctiva and cornea, corneal clouding, edema and ulcerations.

Danger! Possible loss of eyesight!

Superficial irritations and damage up to ulcerations and scarring develop on the skin.

After accidental absorption in the body, the pathology and clinical findings are dependent on the kinetics of the substance (quantity of absorbed substance, the absorption time, and the effectiveness of early elimination measures (first aid)/ excretion - metabolism).

A specific action of the substance is unknown

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:       Water spray, foam, CO2, dry powder.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:       high volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

If necessary nitrous gases.

organic products of decomposition

hydrochloric acid

Carbon oxides

Hazard-determining flue gases might develop in case of fire:

In case of fire cool endangered containers with water.

Advice for firefighters

Water for fire fighting must not be introduced in the sewer system, subsoil, or surface waters. Assure that there are sufficient fire water retaining facilities Contaminated fire fighting water must be disposed of in conformity with the regulations of the local authorities.

Fire residues should be disposed of in accordance with the regulations.

wear a self contained respiratory apparatus

Wear suitable protective clothing.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Keep unauthorized persons away.

Environmental precautions

Prevent product from entering drains.

Do not allow entrance in soil, stretches of water, groundwater, drainage systems, surface water.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust).

Fill into marked, sealable containers.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Avoid residues of the product on the containers.

If possible, use material transfer/filling, metering and blending plants that are closed, or provide for local suction devices.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Advice on protection against fire and explosion

Normal measures for preventive fire protection.

Storage

Store in the original receptacle, keeping this tightly sealed, under cool and dry conditions.

Further information

In order to ensure due transportation, make certain that stacks are of the correct height, containers are securely fastened so as not to fall off, and labelled according to the regulations.

German storage class

8B - Non-flammable caustic hazardous substances

Specific end use(s)

We are unaware of any specific end uses which go beyond the data reported in Section 1.
