Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 exposure to vapour, mists or fumes causes drowsiness,
headache, blurred vision or irritation, remove immediately
to fresh air. Keep patient warm and at rest. If any symptoms
persist obtain medical advice.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with a copious amount of water for at
least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention if irritation

occurs.
Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin thoroughly with soap
and water. Obtain medical attention if irritation occurs.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Obtain immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, alcohol foam or water fog.

Product arising from burning: Oxides of carbon.

Product determined by test: N

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


Fight the fire from a safe distance or protected location.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity. Eliminate all
ignition sources.


Wear appropriate personal protective equipment conforming to
the relevant national or international standards.



Absorb spillages of solutions with a suitable inert material
(eg. sand or soil). Use a non-sparking or explosion proof
means to transfer the spillage to sealed containers for
disposal. Containers filled with waste

material must be labelled in the same way as the original
substance containers.


For large spills, dike spilled material or otherwise contain
the material to ensure run-off does not reach a waterway.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used under
conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with
any local regulations in order to avoid exposure.


Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the
substance.


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 protective clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166.


Furthermore, when respiratory protective equipment has to be
used, it must be capable of adequately controlling
exposure, be suitable for the purpose, and conform to the
appropriate international or national standards, such as a
powered air respirator conforming to EN12941.


These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a segregated and approved area in containers
designed for use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The substance will be imported in bulk tankers.

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 technically feasible, and such waste material will be
disposed of by incineration or landfill. In principle, it
may be possible to recover larger spillages of
uncontaminated material for subsequent use.

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

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed
with inert material (eg. sand or soil) should not be
disposed of by landfill.

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 noxious fumes (eg. carbon
oxides) could be formed.

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

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: None.
