Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
- Skin contact Remove contaminated clothes and shoes immediately. Wash affected area with soap or mild detergent and large amount of water until no evidence of substance remains (15-20 minutes). Get medical advice and show him the label.
- Ingestion If swallowed wash mouth with water provided person is conscious. Get medical advice and show him the label.
- Inhalation Avoid breathing dusts that may be generated by handling of the product. Remove the person from the exposed area to fresh air immediately. Get medical advice advice and show him the label.
Fire-fighting measures
- Hazardous combustion products May produce toxic fumes of COx and NOx.
Don’t try to extinguish the fire without an autonomous respiratory device (SCBA) and protective adapted clothes.
Wear boots, overalls, gloves, eye and face protection and breathing apparatus. Equipment must be conformed with EN criteria and used in highest condition of protection on the basis of the information reported in the previous sub-sections
Accidental release measures
Collect all of the material scattered on the ground with protective equipment adapted and put it in a clean and dry container.
Recover the substance for suction or with other mechanic means and wash the with plenty of water and cleanings. Store the recovered product recovered in wait of the skilled disposal society. If the effusion happened in highway or in a public place, suitable trickiness should be adopted in order to protect the people from any risk.
Handling and storage
Handle away from sparkles and flames - sources of ignition
Avoid contact with incompatible materials
Wear suitable Personal Protection Equipment (see section 8)
Keep the substance away from drains, surface or ground waters
Do note eat, drink and smoke in the working areas
Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas

Exposure controls / personal protection
Safety goggles as for EN 166; facial shield.
Skin protection
- Hands protection Gloves resistant to chemical agents as for the EN 374, parts 1, 2 e 3 and the European Directive 89/89/EEC.
The gloves material must be waterproof and stable against the substance content.
Select the glove material on the basis of the type of the material, typical or minimal breakdown times, permeability ranges, thickness.
Material : nitrile (nitrilic rubber), ipoallergenic.
Thickness : not inferior to 0.12 mm.
- Other, body protection Select the suitable protective equipment based on the activity of use and possible exposure. Wear gauntlets, boots, bodysuit and other devices in accordance with EN 13982 in case of powders.
Respiratory protection When the risk evaluation foresees the need to use respirator devices with assisted ventilation, use a powder filter like P1, P2 and P3. Use only devices approved by the Competent Authorities such as NIOSH (USA) and CEN (EU). In case of brief exposure use respiratory device; in more intense and longer exposures use self-contained breathing.

Disposal considerations
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
