Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Using appropriate personal protective equipment, move
exposed subject to fresh air. If breathing is difficult or
ceases, ensure and maintain ventilation. Give oxygen as
appropriate. The exposed subject should be kept warm and at
rest. Obtain medical attention in cases of known or possible
over exposure, or with symptoms including chest pain,
difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness or other adverse
effects, which may be delayed.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash immediately with clean and gently flowing water.
Continue for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Using appropriate personal protective equipment, remove
contaminated clothing and flush exposed area with large
amounts of water. Obtain medical attention if skin reaction
occurs, which may be immediate or delayed.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Never attempt to induce vomiting. Do not attempt to give any
solid or liquid by mouth if the exposed subject is
unconscious or semi-conscious. Wash out the mouth with
water. If the exposed subject is fully conscious, give
plenty of water to drink. Obtain medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Carbon dioxide, dry powder or foam extinguishers are
recommended. Do not use water extinguishers. Water jets may
intensify the fire of be ineffective.


Since toxic, corrosive or flammable vapours might be evolved
from fires involving the notified chemical, self contained
breathing apparatus and full protective equipment are
recommended for firefighters.


Move containers from the fire area if possible without
increased personal risk.


If possible, contain and collect firefighting water for
latter disposal.


Toxic, corrosive or flammable thermal decomposition products
are expected when the material is exposed to fire.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involed in a
fire, evolving noxious fumes containing nitrogen and carbon
oxides.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing
apparatus most be worn.

Fight fire from a safe distance or protected locations.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Fence or condon the affected area and do not allow
individuals to touch or walk through the spilled material
unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Avoid dust
generation.


Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, surface drainage
systems and poorly ventilated areas.


In the event of a spill spread an inert absorbent on the
spill and place in a suitable, properly labelled container
for recovery or disposal. Following removal of spillage wash
down spillage area with copious amounts of water only if
waste water can be directed to an on-site waste water
treatment system.


Detergent solutions can be used for clean-up and
decontamination operations.Water can be used for clean-up
and decontamination operations.The waste waters generated
during decontamination should be directed to a waste water
treatment system.

Handling and storage

Handling: At both sites:


Assess all operations involving this material for potential
fire and explosion risks and take suitable precautions based
on the guidance provided. Depending upon the scale of the
operation, use of appropriate exhaust ventilation is
recommended to provide routine control of fire and explosion
hazards during handling of this material.


Ensure that any area in which this mnaterial is ahndled has
sufficient ventilation to avoid the build up of vapour and
to control employee potential exposure to volatiles below
National Occupational Exposure Limits.


Ignition Controls:


Bond and earth (ground) all plant and equipment to ensure
that no isolated conductors are present. Isolated conductors
can accumulate sufficient electrostatic charge to produce
discharges of many hundreds of milli-Joules.


Keep this material away from all forms of ignition such as
open flames, mechanical sparks, frictional heat and hot
surface.

Storage: Storage;


Keep material in sealed containers in a cool, well-
ventilated are away from sources of ignition. Avoid
prolonged storage at elevated temperatures (greater than
room temperature, approximately 20 Deg C).

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: This will be transported in polypropylene-lined mild steel
drums in quantities of 180 kg.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None reported.

Chemical reaction with water: None which is hazardous.

Dust explosion: Not applicable as the substance is a liquid.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Discharge to the environment will be minimal. Recovery from
minor spillages or accidental discharge is not economically
or techinically feasible, and as such waste materila will be
disposed of by incineration. In principle, it may be
possible to recover large spillages of uncontaminated
material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the
harzardous environmental properties.

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

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance can be disposed of by incineration by burning
under controlled conditions at a licensed waste treatment
processor in accordance with local regulations. Stack gases
should be scrubbed, because noxous fumes (e.g. carbon and
nitrogen oxides) could formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to
the sewage system or the aqueous environment. However,
adverse effects on the sewage treatment system would be
unlikely.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable as the substance is not made available to the
public.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable as the substance is not made available to the
public.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Not applicable as the substance is not made available to the
public.
