Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of first aid measures

Immediately remove contaminated clothing. If danger of loss of consciousness, place patient in

recovery position and transport accordingly. Apply artificial respiration if necessary. First aid

personnel should pay attention to their own safety.

If inhaled:

Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.

On skin contact:

Wash thoroughly with soap and water.

On contact with eyes:

Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open. If irritation

develops, seek medical attention.

On ingestion:

Rinse mouth immediately and then drink plenty of water, induce vomiting, seek medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Symptoms: The most important known symptoms and effects are described in the labelling (see

section 2) and/or in section 11., Further symptoms are possible

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific

antidote.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:

water spray, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

nitrogen oxides, carbon oxides

The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire.

Advice for fire-fighters

Special protective equipment:

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.

Further information:

Collect contaminated extinguishing water separately, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent

systems.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid inhalation.

Environmental precautions

Do not empty into drains.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

For small amounts: Allow to solidify and sweep/shovel up.

For large amounts: Allow to solidify and sweep/shovel up.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. When handling heated product, vapours of the

product should be ventilated, and respiratory protection used.

Protection against fire and explosion:

Sources of ignition should be kept well clear.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Segregate from acids and acid forming substances.

Further information on storage conditions: Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place.

Storage stability:

Storage duration: 24 Months

From the data on storage duration in this safety data sheet no agreed statement regarding the

warrantee of application properties can be deduced.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters

Components with occupational exposure limits

No occupational exposure limits known.

PNEC

freshwater: 0.017 mg/l

marine water: 0.0017 mg/l

intermittent release: 0.17 mg/l

STP: 199.5 mg/l

sediment (freshwater): 0.0782 mg/kg

sediment (marine water): 0.00782 mg/kg

soil: 0.005 mg/kg

oral (secondary poisoning):

No PNEC oral derived, as accumulation in organisms is not to be expect.

Exposure controls

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection:

Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic

compounds (boiling point >65 °C, e. g. EN 14387 Type A) Combination filter for gases/vapours of

organic compounds and solid and liquid particles (f.e. EN 14387 Type A-P2)

Hand protection:

Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6,

corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):

fluoroelastomer (FKM) - 0.7 mm coating thickness

Suitable materials short-term contact and/or splashes (recommended: At least protective index 2,

corresponding > 30 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374)

butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness

nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness

polyvinylchloride (PVC) - 0.7 mm coating thickness

Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.

Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove

manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g.

temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in

practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.

Eye protection:

Tightly fitting safety goggles (splash goggles) (e.g. EN 166)

General safety and hygiene measures

Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid inhalation of vapour. Wearing of closed work

clothing is required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

Corrosion to metals: Corrosive effects to metal are not anticipated.

Formation of

flammable gases:

Remarks: Forms no flammable gases in the

presence of water.

Chemical stability

The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

Strong exothermic reaction with acids. May react with oxidizing agents. Reacts with alkali metals.

May evolve hydrogen gas. If product is heated above decomposition temperature toxic vapours may

be released. Heating may cause an explosion.

Conditions to avoid

Avoid extreme temperatures.

Incompatible materials

Substances to avoid:

alkali or alkaline-earth metal, strong oxidizing agents, strong acids

Hazardous decomposition products

Hazardous decomposition products:

Incomplete combustion results in formation of toxic gases, containing mainly carbon monoxide and

carbon dioxide., carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, The substances/groups of substances mentioned

can be released in case of fire.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Incinerate in suitable incineration plant, observing local authority regulations.

A waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) cannot be specified, due to

dependence on the usage.

The waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) must be specified in

cooperation with disposal agency/manufacturer/authorities.

Contaminated packaging:

Contaminated packaging should be emptied as far as possible; then it can be passed on for

recycling after being thoroughly cleaned.
