Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: If inhaled, provide fresh air, warmth, rest and seek medical
advice.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash out eyes thoroughly with plenty of water for fifteen
minutes. If necessary, seek medical advice.
Emergency measure - Skin: Immediately wash contaminated skin with soap and large
quantities of water for fifteen minutes. If necessary, seek
medical advice.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting. Drink plenty of water and if
necessary seek medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: To suit local surroundings (e.g. water spray, carbon
dioxide, foam, chemical powder).

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

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, as
mentioned in section 2.3.10.


Avoid dust formation. 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 plenty of soap and water.


Dispose of waste material in accordance with local
regulations.

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 EN374

Chemical protective clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166.

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
respiratory protection conforming to EN136.



These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool dry place away from sources of ignition.


Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: UN approved fibre drums (25 - 35 Kg) with 2 polyethylene
liners.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None known.

Chemical reaction with water: None which is hazardous.

Dust explosion: Material exhibits explosion characteristics if ignited as a
dust cloud. Material is very susceptible to accumulating
static charges during processing and uncontrolled static
discharge may result in igniting a dust cloud under certain
conditions due to low minimum ignition energy. Provide
suitable bonding and grounding for containers and process
equipment to control static charge. Powder handling
equipment such as dust collectors, dryers, and mills may
require additional protective measures (e.g. explosive
venting). Nitrogen blanketing is required.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: 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. In principle,
it may be possible to recover larger spillages of
uncontaminated material by a recrystallisation process, for
subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The dust hazard will be minimised by bonding and grounding
as required to control static charges. Powder handling
equipment such as dust collectors, dryers and mills will
have additional protective measures in place as required,
such as explosion venting.


There is no possibility of neutralisation.

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
incinceration in accordance with local regulations.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Incineration is recommended for larger quantities of waste.
A closed-cycle incinerator with scrubbers should be
employed. National and local regulations must be observed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Biological oxidation occurs at the waste water treatment
plants. Trace quantities in aqueous washes can be treated in
secondary biological WWTP before discharge to municipal
treatment works. The substance should not normally be
discharged directly to the sewage system or the aqueous
environment. However, adverse effects on sewage treatment
systems would be unlikely.
