Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Emergency measure - Inhalation: If symptomatic, move to fresh air. Treat symptomatically.

Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Any material that contacts the eye should be washed out

immediately with water. Get medical attention if symptoms

occur.

Emergency measure - Skin: Wash off with soap and water. Get medical attention if

symptoms occur.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Get medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an

unconscious person.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray, carbon dioxide (CO2), dry chemical, or foam.

Product arising from burning: Carbon oxides and hydrogen bromide.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective

clothing.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Absorb spill with vermiculite or other inert material, then

place in a container for chemical waste. Clean surface

thoroughly to remove residual contamination.

Handling and storage

Handling: Avoid prolonged or repeated breathing of mist or vapour.

Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Ensure adequate

ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling.

Storage: Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from incompatible

substances (i.e., strong oxidizing agents, acids, and

bases).

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The substance will be imported as a liquid in

200-kilogram pre-weighed drums.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None.

Chemical reaction with water: Experience in use and structure activity relationships

indicate that the test substance is not hazardous in contact

with water or humid air.

Dust explosion: Not applicable.

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 degrees C is expected

to be sufficient to destroy the substance.

Hazardous Combustion Products:  Carbon oxides

Hazardous Decomposition Products:  Hydrogen bromide

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The predicted environmental concentrations (PECs) for each

compartment at the continental, regional, and local spatial

scales were calculated using EUSES computer model and the

methods described in the EU Technical Guidance Document

(TGD).  Only residual waste resulting from washing emptied

drums was considered for calculating PEC values.

Information specific to local STP and receiving water

Specific Information                Parameter

Number of emission days/year:       12

Local emission to wastewater

during episode:                     1 kg/day

Characterization                    Not readily

of biodegradability:                biodegradable

Effluent discharge rate of STP:     4.32 x 10^8 L/day

Flow rate of river (low flow):      8.64 x 10^8 L/day

The fate of a substance in a communal sewage treatment plant

is modeled using a non-equilibrium, steady-state box model,

known as SIMPLETREAT.  In EUSES a revised version of this

model is employed, SIMPLETREAT 3.0.  The fate of the

substance as modeled by SIMPLETREAT is presented in the

table below:

Fate of substance in local STP

Compartment                            Fraction of Emission

Fraction of emission directed to air            0.0

Fraction of emission directed to water          0.0826

Fraction of emission directed to sludge         0.917

Fraction of emission degraded                   0.0
