Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

None.

SPECIFIC HAZARDS

By fire toxic gases may be formed (Cox, NOx).

PROTECTIVE MEASURES IN FIRE

Self contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.

Accidental release measures

PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

See below.

ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS

Take precautionary measures against discharges into the environment.

SPILL CLEAN UP METHODS

Collect spilled material without creating dust, then place into a suitable closed container for disposal as chemical waste.

Handling and storage

USAGE PRECAUTIONS

Avoid contact with eyes or skin.

Wash thoroughly after handling and before eating, drinking or smoking.

DNELs:

The main derived long-term DNELs for systemic effects are:

      Workers              General population

Oral       not relevant              6 mg/kg bw/day

Dermal       12 mg/kg bw/day       6 mg/kg bw/day

Inhalation       10.59 mg/m3/day       2.61 mg/m3/day

The CHESAR v2.3.0 exposure model for this substance shows for indoor industrial activities taking more than 4 hours/day, with local exhaust ventilation (LEV) present (and running), the following exposures:

      Inhalation (mg/m3)       dermal (mg/kg/day)       RCR (inh)       RCR (dermal)       RCR (total)

PROC1       0.01              0.034              < 0.01       < 0.01       < 0.01

Use in closed process, no likelihood of exposure

PROC2       0.001              0.137              < 0.01       0.011       0.012

Use in closed, continuous process with occasional controlled exposure

PROC3       0.01              0.069              < 0.01       < 0.01       < 0.01

Use in closed batch process (synthesis or formulation)

PROC8b       0.005              0.685              < 0.01       0.057       0.058

Transfer of chemicals from/to vessels/large containers at dedicated facilities

PROC9       0.01              0.686              < 0.01       0.057       0.058

Transfer of chemicals into small containers (dedicated filling line)

PROC15       0.01              0.034              < 0.01       < 0.01       < 0.01

Use as a laboratory reagent

Notes:

•       Dustiness of the substance was set at “low”

•       Basic general ventilation is assumed in all cases (1-3 air exchanges per hour)

•       An advanced occupational health and safety management system has been assumed

•       LEV is considered for both inhalation and dermal exposures and its efficiencies are as follows:

o       For PROC1 LEV is not an exposure modifier

o       For PROC2, PROC3, PROC9 and PROC15 LEV reduces both inhalation and dermal exposure with 90%

o       For PROC8b LEV reduces both inhalation and dermal exposure with 95%

PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

Protective gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing.

RESPIRATORY EQUIPMENT

None required

HAND PROTECTION

Protective gloves: Use chemical resistant gloves classified under Standard EN374, class 6.

EYE PROTECTION

Wear approved safety goggles.

HYGIENE MEASURES

Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet.

SKIN PROTECTION

Wear protective clothing.

Stability and reactivity

STABILITY

Stable under normal temperature conditions and recommended use.

MATERIALS TO AVOID

Strong oxidising agents, strong acids, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides.

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS

By fire toxic gases (Cox, NOx) may be formed.

Disposal considerations
