Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: If exposure to vapour, mists or fumes caused drowsiness,

headache, blurred vision or irritation, remove immediately

to fresh air. Keep patient warm and at rest. If any symptoms

persist, obtain medical advice.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Immediately flush with copious amounts of water for at least

15 minutes. If irritation persists seek medical attention.

Emergency measure - Skin: Wash materials off the skin with soap and water. If

irritation persists seek medical attention.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Obtain immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Foam and dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide, sand or earth

may be used for small fires only.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

Water in jet. Use of halon extinguishers should be avoided

for environmental reasons.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire. Combustion is likely to give rise to a complex mixture

of airborne solid and liquid particulates and gases,

including carbon monoxide and unidentified organic and

inorganic compounds. However, there is no experimental

evidence to support the anticipated combustion products.

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.

Clean the spillage area with water and detergent. For large

spills, dike spilled material or otherwise contain the

material to ensure run-off does not reach waterway.

Dispose of waste material by incineration or landfill in

accordance with local regulations. Containers filled with

waste material must be labelled in the same way as the

original substance containers.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used in

conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with

any local regulations in order to minimise exposure.

Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the

substance.

When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled

appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.

Such protective equipment should conform to the appropriate

international or national standards as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard EN374

Chemical resistant clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166

If oil mist cannot be controlled, a respirator fitted with

an organic vapour filter (for substances with boiling point

greater than 65degC), combined with a particulate pre-filter

should be used. Half masks (EN 149) or valved half masks

(EN 405) in combination with type A2 (EN 141) and P2/3 (EN

143) pre-filters may be considered.

The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a

minimum.

Storage: Store in a segregated and approved area in containers

designed for use.

Keep in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Use properly

labelled and closeable containers. Avoid direct sunlight,

heat sources and strong oxidising agents. Keep containers

tightly closed when not in use.

For containers and container linings, use mild steel or

high density polyethylene. Avoid PVC.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Marine bulk tanks and isotanks, road tanks.

Small scale tankage or transported via pipeline, road and

rail.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Discharge to the environment will be minimal. 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 not

classified as "dangerous".

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with

inert material (e.g. sand or soil) may be disposed of by

landfill at an authorised tip in accordance with local

regulations.

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 (e.g. oxides of

carbon) 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.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: 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: None.
