Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

General advice:
Remove contaminated clothing. First aid personnel should pay attention to their own safety.
If inhaled:
If difficulties occur after vapour/aerosol has been inhaled, remove to fresh air and seek medical
attention.
On skin contact:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water.
On contact with eyes:
Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open.
On ingestion:
Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water.
Note to physician:
Treatment: Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

carbon dioxide, dry extinguishing media, foam
Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons:
water
Special protective equipment:
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.
Further information:
Keep containers cool by spraying with water if exposed to fire. Collect contaminated extinguishing
water separately, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent systems. Fire debris must be disposed of
in accordance with offical regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:
Ensure adequate ventilation.
Environmental precautions:
Do not empty into drains.
For small amounts: Pick up with suitable absorbent material. Dispose of absorbed material in
accordance with regulations.
For large amounts: Dike spillage. Pump off product.

Handling and storage

Handling: Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas.
Storage: Suitable materials for containers: aluminum, High density polyethylene (HDPE), tin (tinplate), glass,
Low density polyethylene (LDPE), Stove-lacquer RDL 50
Further information on storage conditions: Keep at temperature not exceeding 50°C. Keep in a cool,
well-ventilated place. Do not keep the container sealed.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic
compounds (boiling point >65 °C, e. g. EN 14387 Type A)
Hand protection:
Suitable chemical resistant safety gloves (EN 374) also with prolonged, direct contact
(Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to
EN 374): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), butyl rubber (0.7 mm) and other
Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove
manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g.
temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in
practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.
Eye protection:
Tightly fiffting safety googgles (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
Body protection:
Body protection must be chosen based on level of activity and exposure.
General safety and hygiene measures:
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Avoid contact with the skin,
eyes and clothing. Wearing of closed work clothing is recommended. Keep away from food, drink
and animal feeding stuffs. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Store work clothing separately.

Stability and reactivity

Thermal decomposition: 385 °C, 0.34 kJ/g (DSC (OECD 113))
Substances to avoid:
acids, bases
Corrosion to metals: Corrosive effects to metal are not anticipated.
Hazardous reactions:
Strong exothermic reaction.
Hazardous decomposition products:
acetylene

Disposal considerations

Observe national and local legal requirements.
