Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove from exposure site to fresh air and keep at rest.

Obtain medical advice.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush immediately with water for at leats 15 minutes.

Contact physician if symptoms persist.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothes. Wash thoroughly with water (and

soap). Contact physician if symptoms persist.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water and obtain medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Foam, carbon dioxide or dry chemical may be used.

Do not use a direct waterjet on burning material.

Product arising from burning: Carbon monoxide and unidentified organic compounds may be

formed during combustion.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Use local exhaust ventialtion around open tanks and other

open sources of potential exposures in order to avoid

excessive inhalation, including places where this material

is openly weighed or measured. In addition, use general

dilution ventialtion of the work area to eliminate or reduce

possible worker exposures.

No respiratory protection is required during normal

operations in a workplace where engineering controls such as

adequate ventilation, etc. are sufficient.

If engineering controls and safe work practices are not

sufficient, an approved, properly fitted respirator with

organic vapor cartridges or canisters and particulate

filters should be used:

a) while engineering controls and appropriate safe work

practices and/or procedures are being implemented; or

b) during short term maintanance procedures when engineering

controls are not in normal operation or are not sufficient;

or

c)if normal operational workplace vapour concentration in

the air is increased due to heat;

d) during emergencies; or

e) if engineering controls and operational practices are not

sufficient to reduce airborne concentrations below an

established occupational exposure limit.

Accidental release measures

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

contained breathing apparatus is recommended in case of a

major spill.

Keep away from drains, surface- and groundwater and soil.

Clean up spillage promptly. Remove ignition sources. Provide

adequate ventilation. Spillages should be contained by use

of sand or inert powder and disposed of in accordnace with a

local regulation.

Handling and storage

Handling: Avoid excessive inhalation of concentrated vapours. Follow

good manufacturing practices for housekeeping and personal

hygiene.

Wash any exposed skin immediately after any chemical

contact, before breaks and meals, and at the end of each

work period. Contaminated clothing and shoes should be

thoroughly cleaned before re-use.

If appropriate, procedures used during the handling of this

material should also be used when cleaning equipment or

removing residual chemicals from tanks or other containers,

especially when steam or hot water is used, as this may

increase vapour concentrations in the workplace air. Where

chemicals are openly handled, access should be restricted to

properly trained employees.

Keep all heated processes at the lowest necessary

temperature in order to minimize emisssions of volatile

chemicals into the air.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, ventialted area away from heat

sources. Keep containers upright and tightly closed when not

in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Drums or totes

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: The substance will only enter the public domain as articles

which can be disposed of as domestic waste.
