Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Emergency measure - Eyes: Get medical attention if eye irritation develops or

persists.

Emergency measure - Skin: Get medical attention.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: CO2, dry chemical, foam

Product arising from burning: CO2, NOx and other toxic fumes, gases or vapours

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Use nitrile or neoprene gloves and safety glasses. Long

sleeve shirt is recommended. Self-contained breathing

apparatus recommended in confined space and other poorly

ventilated areas or during firefighting procedures.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Personal Protective Equipment must be worn. Nitrile and

similar oil resistant gloves are appropriate. Ventilate area

if spilled in confined space or other poorly ventilated

areas. Prevent entry into sewers and waterways. Pick up free

liquid for recycle and/or disposal. Residual liquid can be

absorbed on inert material.

Handling and storage

Handling: Keep containers closed when not in use. Wash hands

thoroughly after handling.

Storage: No special storage precautions required.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The material is not regulated by ADR, RID, ADN, ICAO, IMDG

or IATA. A UN 1Al drum is recommended but not required.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls - None of the components have assigned exposure limits

Personal protection - Use material in well ventilated area only.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

General information: Please follow the recommended personal protective equipment (PPE) guidelines below and refer to the appropriate EN standard where applicable. Use personal protective equipment as required.

Eye/face protection: If contact is likely, safety glasses with side shields are recommended. Eyeprotection should meet the standards set out in EN 166.

Skin protection

Hand Protection: Suitable gloves can be recommended by the glove supplier. Use nitrile or neoprene gloves.

General: Because specific work environments and material handling practices vary, safety procedures should be specific for each intended application. The correct choice of protective gloves depends upon the chemicals being handled, and the conditions of work and use. Most gloves provide protection for only a limited time before they must be discarded and replaced (even the best chemically resistant gloves will break down after repeated chemical exposures). Gloves should be chosen in consultation with the supplier / manufacturer and taking account of a full assessment of the working conditions. For typical use and handling of chemical substances, gloves should meet the standards set out in EN 374. For applications involving mechanical risks with potential for abrasion or puncture, the standards set out in EN 388 should be considered. For tasks involving thermal hazards, the standards set out in EN 407 should be considered.

Break-through time: Breakthrough time data are generated by glove manufacturers under laboratory test conditions and represent how long a glove can be expected to provide effective permeation resistance. It is important when following breakthrough time recommendations that actual workplace conditions are taken into account. Always consult with your glove supplier for up-to-date technical information on breakthrough times for the recommended glove type.

For continuous contact, we suggest gloves with a minimum breakthrough time of 240 minutes, or > 480 minutes if suitable gloves can be obtained. If suitable gloves are not available to offer that level of protection, gloves with

shorter breakthrough times may be acceptable as long as appropriate glove maintenance and replacement regimes are determined and adhered to. For short-term, transient exposures and splash protection, gloves with shorter breakthrough times may commonly be used. Therefore, appropriate maintenance and replacement regimes must be determined and rigorously followed.

Glove thickness: For general applications, we recommend gloves with a thickness typically greater than 0.35 mm. It is important to note that glove thickness is not the only predictor of glove resistance to a specific chemical, as the permeation efficiency of the glove will be dependent on the exact composition of the glove material. Therefore, glove selection should also be based on consideration of the task requirements and knowledge of breakthrough times. Glove thickness may also vary depending on the glove manufacturer, the glove type and the glove model. Therefore, the manufacturers’ technical data should always be taken into account to ensure selection of the most appropriate glove for the task.

Note: Depending on the activity being conducted, gloves of varying thickness may be required for specific tasks. For example: Thinner gloves (down to 0.1 mm or less) may be required where a high degree of manual dexterity is needed. However, these gloves are only likely to give short duration protection and would normally be just for single use applications, before being disposed of. Thicker gloves (up to 3 mm or more) may be required where there is a mechanical (as well as a chemical) risk i.e. where there is abrasion or puncture potential.

Other: Gloves, coveralls, apron, boots as necessary to minimize contact. Do not wear rings, watches or similar apparel that could entrap the material.
