Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

If inhaled:

If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

In case of skin contact:

Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash off with soap and water. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

In case of eye contact:

Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses. Consult a physician.

If swallowed:

If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). Call a physician immediately

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: water mist, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide, sand, aqueous film forming foam.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: water spray jet.

Specific hazards during fire-fighting: heating can release hazardous gases.

Hazardous combustion products: carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides.

Special protective equipment for firefighters: in the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Firefighters must wear fire resistant personal protective equipment.

Specific extinguishing methods: in the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions: evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.

Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Environmental precautions: should not be released into the environment.

Methods for cleaning up: keep in properly labelled containers. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Treat recovered material as described in the section "Disposal considerations". Dam up. Soak up with inert absorbent material.

Handling and storage

Advice on safe handling: to avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat. Use personal protective equipment as required.

Requirements for storage areas and containers:

To maintain product quality, do not store in heat or direct sunlight. Store in original container. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Recommended storage temperature: 15 - 25 °C

Exposure controls / personal protection

Personal protective equipment:

- Eye protection: tightly fitting safety goggles

- Hand protection: nitrile rubber impervious gloves

- Skin and body protection:closed work clothing

- Respiratory protection: engineering controls should always be the primary method of controlling exposures.

If respiratory protective equipment is needed for certain activities, the type as well as the corresponding protection factor will depend upon the risk assessment and air concentrations, hazards, physical and warning properties of substances present. Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/ national standards. Respirator with a vapour filter ABEK.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity: none reasonably foreseeable.

Chemical stability: stable under normal conditions.

Hazardous reactions: none reasonably foreseeable.

Conditions to avoid: to avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat. Heat, flames and sparks.

Materials to avoid: bases, iron.

Hazardous decomposition products: carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods: in accordance with local and national regulations.
