Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Remove patient to fresh air. Symptomatic treatment. Seek

medical attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek

medical attention if irritation persists.
Emergency measure - Skin: Wash with soap and plenty of water. Launder contaminated

clothing before re-use. Seek medical attention if irritation
persists.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Symptomatic treatment. Seek medical attention if patient

feels unwell.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: water spray, carbon dioxide, dry powder foam.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a
fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg oxides of carbon and
nitrogen).

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,

Avoid dust formation by damping down with water. Absorb
spillages of solutions with a suitable inert material (eg.
sand or soil). Carefully transfer the spillage to waste
containers, or use a sealed industrial vacuum machine.
Containers filled with waste material must be labelled in
the same way as the original substance containers.


Clean the spillage area with detergent and water.


Dispose of waste material in accordance with local
regulations by landfill or incineration.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used under
conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with
any local regulations in order to avoid 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 prEN374

Chemical protective clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard prEN166.

Furthermore, when respiratory protective equipment has to be
used, it must be capable of adequately controlling exposure,
be suitable for the purpose, and conform to the appropriate
international or national standards, such as a dust mask
conforming to EN149 FFP1.

These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool,dry, well-ventilated place, away from
sources of ignition.


Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 10 kg paper bag.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Handling of the substance will be by trained operators, and
will be kept to a minimum.


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 not identified any hazardous
properties of the substance. Chemical treatment to
neutralise hazardous health or environmental properties is
not applicable.


The dust hazard will be neutralised by appropriate storage
and handling techniques.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with
inert material (eg. 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 (eg. carbon and
nitrogen oxides) 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. Effects on
sewage treatment systems are unknown.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance will not enter the public domain
