Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Due to the low vapour pressure of the new chemical

inhalation is only possible in the form of dust. After

inhalation seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse with plenty of water, if necessary seek medical

advice.

Emergency measure - Skin: Wash with water and soap.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Give affected person great amounts to drink. Due to the low

oral tocicity no special treatment is necessary. If the

affected person does not feel well seek medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: all appropriate.

Product arising from burning: Sulphur oxides, NOx, CO/CO2.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Respiratory protection equipment (filter B2-P3 or ABEK-P3)

and protective clothing according to the fire situation.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Avoid inhalation and contact with skin and eyes.

Spilt powder should be taken up and should be filled into

well labelled container. The waste material should be

incinerated.

Obey to the precaution measures described in 2.3.1.

Handling and storage

Handling: All steps in the process should be carried out in such a way

that no dust or static charges are generated. If dust is

generated, make sure that it is extracted efficiently. Use

particle filters (DIN 3181-P1).

Skin and eye contact must be avoided. Suitable protection

glasses, clothes and gloves are recommended. Keep away from

food and drink stuffs.

Storage: Storage rooms should comply with the rules governing

industrial hygiene.

Store in tightly closed container. Avoid substance on the

container. When handling observe the usual precautionary

measures for chemicals.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: none

Chemical reaction with water: no reaction.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery or reuse is practically not possible.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: If used as intended there is no danger.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Dumping on waste disposal sites insulated to prevent seepage

of liquids into the ground is possible if in accordance with

existing environmental legislation and applicable local

regulations.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Incineration is the preferred and recommended way of

destruction. The usual exhaust gases are formed as are

produced on burning organic compounds containing nitrogen

and sulphur.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance is dissolved out of the layer during

photographic development processes by the developer and so

ends up in the effluent (15 - 35 mg/m2 photopaper). Waste

disposal of the developing bathes is carried out by

companies licensed for this task.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: none

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The new substance is only used at Agfa-Gevaert AG,

Leverkusen, and Agfa-Gevaert NV, Belgium. Used by the

general public only in the form of photographic papers.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: If used as intended there is no danger. Photographic paper

containing only very small quantities of the new substance

can be disposed with the household refuse, discharged on

waste disposal sites or (the preferred method) destructed by

incineration.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: see 6.2.2
