Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Remove contaminated clothing. If the patient is likely to become unconscious, place and transport in
stable sideways position (recovery position). 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 off thoroughly with ample water. If irritation develops, seek medical attention.
On contact with eyes:
Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open. Seek medical
attention.
On ingestion:
Rinse mouth immediately and then drink plenty of water, seek medical attention.
Note to physician:
Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific
antidote.
Fire-fighting measures
usual extinguishing media
Additional information:
Use extinguishing measures to suit surroundings.
Special protective equipment:
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.
Further information:
Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations.
Accidental release measures
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid inhalation.
Environmental precautions:
Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil. Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.
Methods for cleaning up or taking up:
For large amounts: Pump off product.
For residues: Pick up with absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose binder). Correctly
dispose of recovered product immediately.
Handling and storage
Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Protection against fire and explosion:
The substance/product is non-combustible.
Storage
Suitable materials for containers: Stainless steel 1.4301 (V2), Stainless steel 1.4401, Glass reinforced
plastic (GRP)
Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Respiratory protection:
Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic
compounds (boiling point >65 °C, e. g. EN 14387 Type A)
Hand protection:
Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6,
corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):
butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
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.
Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
Body protection:
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting
boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case of
dust).
General safety and hygiene measures:
Wearing of closed work clothing is required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment.
Stability and reactivity
Chemical reaction with water: None reported.
Dust explosion: Not applicable.
Disposal considerations
A waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) cannot be specified, due to
dependence on the usage.
Contaminated packaging:
Contaminated packaging should be emptied as far as possible; then it can be passed on for recycling
after being thoroughly cleaned.
Uncleaned empties should be disposed of in the same manner as the contents.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
