Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of first aid measures

First aid personnel should pay attention to their own safety. If the patient is likely to become

unconscious, place and transport in stable sideways position (recovery position). Immediately

remove contaminated clothing.

If inhaled:

Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention. Immediately inhale corticosteroid

dose aerosol.

On skin contact:

Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist.

On contact with eyes:

Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open,

consult an eye specialist.

On ingestion:

Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Symptoms: Overexposure may cause:, dyspnea, coughing

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific

antidote.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:

water spray, dry powder, foam

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

nitrogen oxides, carbon oxides

The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire. Under certain

conditions in case of fire other hazardous combustion products may be generated.

Advice for fire-fighters

Special protective equipment:

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.

Further information:

Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Avoid inhalation. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing.

Environmental precautions

Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

For large amounts: Pump off product.

For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose binder,

kieselguhr). Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.

Cleaning operations should be carried out only while wearing breathing apparatus. Clean

contaminated floors and objects thoroughly with water and detergents, observing environmental

regulations. Collect waste in suitable containers, which can be labeled and sealed. Incinerate or take

to a special waste disposal site in accordance with local authority regulations.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Sealed containers should be protected against

heat as this results in pressure build-up.

Protection against fire and explosion:

Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should

be kept handy.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated

place.

Storage stability:

Storage temperature: <= 35 °C

Storage duration: 24 Months

From the data on storage duration in this safety data sheet no agreed statement regarding the

warrantee of application properties can be deduced.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters

Components with occupational exposure limits

75-64-9: tert-Butylamine

PNEC

freshwater: 0.016 mg/l

marine water: 0.0016 mg/l

intermittent release: 0.16 mg/l

STP: 72 mg/l

sediment (freshwater): 39 mg/kg

sediment (marine water): 3.9 mg/kg

soil: 7.76 mg/kg

Exposure controls

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection:

Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic

compounds (boiling point <65 °C, f.e. EN 14387 Type AX)

Hand protection:

Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)

Suitable materials short-term contact and/or splashes (recommended: At least protective index 2,

corresponding > 30 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374)

butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness

nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness

polyvinylchloride (PVC) - 0.7 mm coating thickness

chloroprene rubber (CR) - 0.5 mm coating thickness

Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.

Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove

manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g.

temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in

practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.

Eye protection:

Tightly fitting safety goggles (cage goggles) (e.g. EN 166) and face shield.

Body protection:

Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting

boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case

of dust).

General safety and hygiene measures

Do not breathe vapour/spray. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. The substance was

registered as a transported isolated intermediate. The manufacturer/importer has received the

confirmation by the user that the substance is used under strictly controlled conditions in accordance

with art. 18 of the REACH regulation (EC) No 1907/2006. Handle in accordance with good industrial

hygiene and safety practice. Wearing of closed work clothing is required additionally to the stated

personal protection equipment.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

Formation of

flammable gases:

Remarks: Forms no flammable gases in the

presence of water.

Chemical stability

The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

Strong exothermic reaction with acids.

Conditions to avoid

Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame.

Incompatible materials

Substances to avoid:

oxidizing agents, acids

Hazardous decomposition products

Thermal decomposition products:

carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Incinerate in suitable incineration plant, observing local authority regulations.

A waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) cannot be specified, due to

dependence on the usage.

The waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) must be specified in

cooperation with disposal agency/manufacturer/authorities.

Contaminated packaging:

Contaminated packaging should be emptied as far as possible; then it can be passed on for

recycling after being thoroughly cleaned.
