Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
•If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
•If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
•Observe the patient carefully.
•Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness; i.e. becoming unconscious.
•Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can comfortably drink.
•Seek medical advice.
•If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
•Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
•Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.
•Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
•Transport to hospital, or doctor, without delay.
If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
•Immediately hold eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously with running water.
•Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
•Continue flushing until advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre or a doctor, or for at least 15 minutes.
•Transport to hospital or doctor without delay.
•Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.
If skin contact occurs:
•Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
•Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
•Seek medical attention in event of irritation.

Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
FOR SMALL FIRE:
•USE FLOODING QUANTITIES OF WATER.
•DO NOT use dry chemical, CO2, foam or halogenated-type extinguishers.
FOR LARGE FIRE
•Flood fire area with water from a protected position
Special hazards arising from the substrate or mixture
Fire Incompatibility
•Avoid storage with reducing agents.
•Avoid any contamination of this material as it is very reactive and any contamination is potentially hazardous
Advice for firefighters
Fire Fighting
•Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.
•May be violently or explosively reactive.
•Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves.
•Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course.
Fire/Explosion Hazard
•Will not burn but increases intensity of fire.
•Heating may cause expansion or decomposition leading to violent rupture of containers.
•Heat affected containers remain hazardous.
•Contact with combustibles such as wood, paper, oil or finely divided metal may produce spontaneous combustion or violent decomposition.
Decomposition may produce toxic fumes of: nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Accidental release measures
Minor Spills
•Clean up all spills immediately.
•No smoking, naked lights, ignition sources.
•Avoid all contact with any organic matter including fuel, solvents, sawdust, paper or cloth and other incompatible materials, as ignition may result.
•Avoid breathing dust or vapours and all contact with skin and eyes.
Major Spills
•Clear area of personnel and move upwind.
•Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.
•May be violently or explosively reactive.
•Wear full body protective clothing with breathing apparatus.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Safe handling
•Avoid personal contact and inhalation of dust, mist or vapours.
•Provide adequate ventilation.
•Always wear protective equipment and wash off any spillage from clothing.
•Keep material away from light, heat, flammables or combustibles.
Fire and explosion protection
Other information
•Store in original containers.
•Keep containers securely sealed as supplied.
•Store in a cool, well ventilated area.
•Keep dry.
In addition, Goods of Class 5.1, packing group II should be:
•stored in piles so that
•the height of the pile does not exceed 1 metre
•the maximum quantity in a pile or building does not exceed 1000 tonnes unless the area is provided with automatic fire extinguishers
•the maximum height of a pile does not exceed 3 metres where the room is provided with automatic fire extinguishers or 2 meters if not.
•the minimum distance between piles is not less than 2 metres where the room is provided with automatic fire extinguishers or 3 meters if not.
•the minimum distance to walls is not less than 1 metre.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Suitable container
•Glass container is suitable for laboratory quantities
•DO NOT repack. Use containers supplied by manufacturer only.
For low viscosity materials
•Drums and jerricans must be of the non-removable head type.
•Where a can is to be used as an inner package, the can must have a screwed enclosure.
For materials with a viscosity of at least 2680 cSt. (23 deg. C) and solids:
•Removable head packaging and cans with friction closures may be used.
Storage incompatibility
•Contact with acids produces toxic fumes
•Inorganic reducing agents react with oxidizing agents to generate heat and products that may be flammable, combustible, or otherwise reactive. Their reactions with oxidizing agents may be violent.
•Incidents involving interaction of active oxidants and reducing agents, either by design or accident, are usually very energetic and examples of so-called redox reactions.
for metal nitrates:
•Segregate from heavy metals, phosphides, sodium acetate, lead nitrate, tartrates, trichloroethylene,
•Avoid shock and heat.
•Mixtures of metal nitrates with alkyl esters may explode due to the formation of unstable alkyl nitrates.
•Mixtures of a nitrate with phosphorous, tin(II) chloride and other reducing agents may react explosively.
•Mixtures containing nitrates and organic materials are potentially dangerous, especially if acidic materials or heavy metals are present.
•Avoid any contamination of this material as it is very reactive and any contamination is potentially hazardous
•Avoid storage with reducing agents.
•Inorganic peroxy compounds are potent oxidisers that pose fire or explosive hazards when in contact with ordinary combustible materials.
•Inorganic peroxides react with organic compounds to generate organic peroxide and hydroperoxide products that react violently with reducing agents.
•Inorganic oxidising agents can react with reducing agents to generate heat and products that may be gaseous (causing pressurization of closed containers). The products may themselves be capable of further reactions (such as combustion in the air).
