Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

case of indisposition seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse with plenty of water. If irritation occurs, seek

medical advice.

Emergency measure - Skin: Wash with soap and water.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Symptomatic treatment. In case of indisposition seek

medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water, dry powder, foam and carbon dioxide may be used.

Product arising from burning: COx, NOx, SO2 and other toxic gases.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: A self-contained breathing apparatus should be worn.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Wear suitable protective clothing (see 2.3.00). Sweep up

(wet powders with water), for liquids absorb using a

suitable absorbent material (eg. kieselguhr, sand, saw dust

etc). Transfer to labelled containers and dispose of by

incineration in accordance with local regulations. Wash

spill site with water. Prevent release to water courses.

Handling and storage

Handling: Ensure adequate ventilation. Observe the usual precautions

for handling chemicals. If the substance is handled as

powder, avoid inhalation and contact with skin and eyes.

Wear suitable protective gloves, safety goggles and a dust

mask. Use equipment for handling powders or other

appropriate egineering controls.

Storage: The substance should be stored in well sealed and secure

containers in adequate rooms at room temperature. Avoid dust

residue outside the containers.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Polyethylene-drum in sealed cardboard-package.

Exposure controls / personal protection

-. Hygiene measures:

Avoid ingestion, inhalation, skin and eye contact. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice and any legal requirements.Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.

Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.

-. Eye/face protection:

Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used  to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists, gases or dusts. Recommended: tightly fitting safety goggles.

-. Hand protection:

Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Use gloves approved to relevant standards e.g. EN 374 (Europe), F739 (US). Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical resistance of glove material and dexterity. Always seek advice from glove suppliers.

-. Skin protection:

Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this product.

-.Respiratory protection:

Respiratory protection by enhanced general ventilation (5-10 air changes per hour). Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits of the selected respirator.

-.Environmental exposure controls:

Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None known.

Chemical reaction with water: None known.

Dust explosion: Not to be expected if handled under good industrial hygiene

practices.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Normal application results in the consumption of approx.

95% by irreversible binding to the polyester fibres.

Recovery for recycling of the remaining substance is not

reasonably practicable.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: No suitable method known.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not suitable for deposit in landfill site.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Code 661: Incinerator with flue gas scrubbing.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Code 641: Removal by controllled discharge to a waste water

treatment plant. It is estimated that 5% of the total

quantity used is discharged into internal industrial

effluents a highly diluted solution. A purification of the

waste water in a waste water treatment plant is

recommended. The dyestuff should be used in a well equiped

dye house. If necessary, the waster water can be purified

prior to the waste water treatment by membrane filtration

or by floculation with cationic agents or by treatment with

ozone. The most effective method is the membrane

filtration: more than 98% of the remaining dyestuff can be

removed from the waste water.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Not applicable.
