Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 inhaled, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
Get medical attention immediately.
Emergency measure - Eyes: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes. Get immediate medical
attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if
irritation occurs.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: If affected person is fully conscious, give one glass of
water to drink. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconcious person. Get medical attention if symptoms appear.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray (fog), foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a
fire, evolving noxious fumes (e.g. carbon and phosphorous
oxides)
Product determined by test: N
Protective equipment: Fire fighters should wear positive pressure self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCUBA) and full turnout gear.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: Immediately contact emergency personnel. Eliminate all
sources of ignition.
Use suitable protection equipment (chemical resistant
impervious gloves, respiratory equipment, eye protection
(safety goggles or safety goggles with a face shield
depending upon quantity, exposure and conditions), and
chemical resistant outer garments.
Follow all fire fighting procedures. Do not touch or walk
through spilled material.
If emergency personnel are unavailable, contain spilled
material. For small spills add adsorbent (soil may be used
in the absence of other suitable materials) and use a non-
sparking or explosion proof means to transfer material to a
sealed, appropriate container for disposal. For large
spills, dike spilled material or otherwise contain material
to ensure runoff does not reach a waterway. Place spilled
material in an appropriate container for disposal. Minimise
contact of spilled material with soils to prevent runoff to
surface waterways.
Handling and storage
Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used in
conditions of good industrial hygiene, and in conformity
with local regulations in order to minimise exposure.
When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled,
appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.
Such protective equipment should conform to the appropriate
international or national standards as follows:
Chemical protective gloves to Standard EN374
Chemical resistant clothing to Standard EN368
Eye protection to Standard EN166
The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a minimu
m.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area.
Keep containers tightly closed and sealed until ready for
use.
Avoid all possible sources of ignition (spark or flame).
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Drums: Carbon steel 208 l tight head drums, with a minimum
specification of UN1A1/Y/1.6/300 (note: drums are typically
filled to a volume of 205 litres).
ISO tanks: Common carrier supplied stainless steel,
typically IMO Type 1 or 2 tanks with or without bottom
outlet valves or other ISO's meeting UN portable tank
requirements.

Stability and reactivity
Danger other than fire: Vapour may cause flash fire. Vapours may accumulate in low
or confined areas, travel considerable distance to source of
ignition and flash back. Runoff to sewer may create fire or
explosion hazard.
Chemical reaction with water: None known.
Dust explosion: Not applicable as the substance is a liquid.
Dust explosion determined by test: N
Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery and recycling following usage and/or accidental
spillage of the notified substance itself is not likely.
Incineration of the waste material that is just the neat
product itself is the most likely means of disposal.
However, recovery of the lubricant additive packages or
finished lubricating fluids is possible. Spilled or spent
fluids can be sent to recycling facilities where it will be
mixed with other oil waste undergoing recyling.
The process first involves a settling step (to remove water)
followed by filtering and demineralisation (to remove
solids and inorganic material), followed by a propane de-
asphalting process to remove the heavier bituminous
fractions followed by distillation to produce re-refined
base oil suitable for lubricants.
Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The mitigation of hazards is best achieved via exposure
controls and personal protection equipment as indicated in
the safety data sheet.
Chemical treatment is not recommended.
Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Spent fluids will be recycled as per previously described.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Spent fluids will be recycled as per previously described.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Spent fluids will be recycled as per previously described.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: Spent fluids will be recycled as per previously described.
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable, as the public will not be exposed to the
substance.
Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable, as the public will not be exposed to the
substance.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable, as the public will not be exposed to the
substance.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable, as the public will not be exposed to the
substance.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable, as the public will not be exposed to the
substance.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: None known.
