Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give

artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give

oxygen. Obtain medical attention immediately.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Hold the eyes open and rinse with water for a sufficiently

long period of time. Contact an ophthalmologist.

Emergency measure - Skin: In case of skin contact wash thoroughly with soap and plenty

of water.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Wash out mouth with water. If material has been swallowed

and the exposed person is conscious, give water to drink.

Contact a physician.

Fire-fighting measures

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

Product arising from burning: Carbon oxides, halogenated compounds and other toxic gases.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Fire fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment

and self-contained breathing apparatus with a

full face-             piece operated in positive pressure

mode. Fight fire in            early stages if safe to do

so. Containers at risk from fire              should be

cooled with water and, if possible, removed from

the danger area. Do not let contaminated extinguishing

water enter into the soil, groundwater or surface waters.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Take up mechanically, having either surrounded and/or

absorbed the substance with absorbent material, e.g. sawdust

or sand. Fill into labelled, sealable containers. Use the

necessary personal protective equipment when handling.

Ensure adequate ventilation/exhaust ventilation.

Handling and storage

Handling: When handling observe the usual precautionary measures for

chemicals. Skin and eye contact as well as inhalation of

vapours must be avoided under all circumstances. The working

area must be ventilated, if necessary local exhaust

ventilation. Vent waste air via suitable separators or

scrubbers.

All workers will be wearing effective personal protective

equipment. For manufacturing areas, skin protection will be

provided in the form of standard overalls (EN 369/EN468)

along  with i.e. nitrile gloves (i.e. EN 374, EN 455).

Chemical safety glasses (i.e. EN 166) will be worn, and if

required, a half-face respirator (i.e. EN 149). SNIF has

been updated accordingly.

If larger  quantities escape, self-contained breathing

apparatus must  be used. After contamination with product,

change the gloves immediately and remove them according to

relevant national and local regulations. Keep working

clothes separate. Change contaminated clothing immediately.

Wash hands before breaks and at end of work. Precautions

should generally be taken against electrostatic charges

according to the equipment used and the way the product is

handled and packaged.

Storage: Store sealed in original container in a cool, dry place.

Protect from temperatures above 50 °C. Protect against

direct sunlight. Keep storage area clean and well

ventilated. Vent waste air via suitable seperators or

scrubbers. Storerooms are to be maintained according to the

principles of a good industrial hygiene. Containers that

have been opened are to be tightly closed after use. Avoid

contamination of containers with the product. Keep away from

sources of ignition and oxidants. Precautions should

generally be taken against electrostatic charges according

to the equipment used and the way the product is handled and

packaged. Do not release contaminated water into soil,

groundwater or surface water.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Drums (200 kg) with PE liner.
