Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

artificial respiration.  If breathing is difficult, give

oxygen.  Call physician or poison control center

immediately.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15

minutes.  Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Emergency measure - Skin: Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15

minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.  Get

medical attention if symptoms occur.  Wash contaminated

clothing before reuse.  Destroy or thoroughly clean

contaminated shoes.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Only induce vomiting at the instruction of medical

personnel.  Call a physician or poison control centre

immediately.  Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious

person.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: In case of fire, use water spray, dry chemical, or CO2.

Wear self contained breathing apparatus and protective

clothing.  Combustion will produce carbon dioxide, carbon

monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, nickel compound(s).

Product determined by test: N

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Collect up substance for safe feed to an incinerator.  Avoid

generation of dust.  Dispose by incineration or by contract

with a licensed chemical disposal agency.

Handling and storage

Handling: Safety glasses or eye protection should be worn.  For

operations where prolonged or repeated skin contact is

necessary, gloves should be worn.  Use process enclosures,

local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to

reduce dust concentrations to acceptable levels.  If

engineering controls are inadequate, use approved dust

respirators.

Storage: Keep away from strong oxidizing materials and heat.

Powdered material may form explosive dust-air mixtures.

Keep container closed.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Substance will be imported in 1kg amounts in plastic bags

within 1/2 gallon polyethylene containers with snap tight

lids.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: High temperatures (>185°C) will cause decomposition.  Avoid

temperatures above 85°C.

Dust explosion: The material, in powder form, may form an explosive dust-air

mixture.  Minimize dust generation and accumulation.  Keep

away from sources of ignition.  Use adequate ventilation

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: It is not practical to recover or recycle the substance.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: It is not practical to neutralize the substance.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: A temperature of 1000°C is expected to be sufficient to

destroy the substance.  Combustion will produce carbon

dioxide and probably carbon monoxide. (A661).

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Computer model (SIMPLETREAT) program predicts 95% removal in

water purification plants, predominately by absorption to

biomass (sludge).

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: It is not practical to recover or recycle the substance.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: It is not practical to neutralize the substance.

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

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: A temperature of 1000°C is expected to be sufficient to

destroy the substance.  Combustion will produce carbon

dioxide and probably carbon monoxide. (B661).

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Computer model (SIMPLETREAT) program predicts 95% removal in

water purification plants, predominately by absorption to

biomass (sludge).

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: None.
