Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Symptomatic treatment. Seek immediate medical attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse eyes thoroughly with clean water for at least fifteen
minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation occurs.
Emergency measure - Skin: Rinse affected area with clean water for at least fifteen
minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation occurs.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Recommended extinguishing agents: Carbon dioxide, dry foam
or alcohol resistant foam.


Unsuitable extingushing agents: Water spray/fog.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a
fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon oxides).

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. Sweep up
powder or absorb spillages of solutions with a suitable
inert material (eg. sand or soil). Carefully transfer the
spillage to waste containers, or use a sealed industrial
vacuum machine. Containers filled with waste material must
be labelled in the same way as the original substance
containers.


Clean the spillage area with water and detergent. Do not
allow washings to enter foul sewer.


Dispose of waste material in accordance with local
regulations by incineration.

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 by skin
contact and inhalation.

Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the
substance, including local exhaust ventilation.


When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled
appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn,
e.g. chemical suit, goggles, Wellington boots and chemical
resistant gloves. Such protective equipment should conform
to the appropriate international or national standards.


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.

Storage: Store in a dry cool environment away from sources of
ignition. Avoid extreme temperatures.


Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Steel drums, IBCs, bulk supply.

substance.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

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 notification tests have shown that the substance is
'dangerous' to the environment. No neutralisation treatment
is practicable for this hazardous property.

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, although disposal by incineration is preferred.

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 to
the sewage system or the aqueous environment. However,
adverse effects on sewage treatment systems would be
unlikely.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None specified.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance may be recovered and burned as fuel.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: 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: Not applicable.
