Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Symptomatic treatment. Seek medical attention if irritation
occurs.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If
irritation occurs seek medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Wash skin with plenty of soap and water. Launder
contaminated clothing before re-use. If irritation occurs
seek medical attention.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray or fog. Carbon dioxide foam or spray.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and may burn if involved in a
fire evolving noxious fumes such as carbon and nitrogen
oxides and chlorine gas.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Fight the fire from a safe and protected location.

Self-contained breathing apparatus must be worn.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity.


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


Absorb spillages of solutions with a suitable inert
material (e.g. sand or soil). Carefully transfer the
spillage to waste containers, or use a wet/dry HEPA
vacuum. Containers filled with waste material must be
labelled in the same way as the original containers.


Clean the spillage area with water and detergent and
ventilate the area.


Dispose of waste material by incineration in accordance with
local regulations.

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 such as enclosing the process on all
sides and using lip exhaust ventilation on each of the baths
which are then exhausted via acid exhaust duct externally
is recommended. The carboy at the side of the tool should
also be exhausted.

Dosing of the carboy should be automatic and should take
place internally in the tool enclosure. There should be no
access to this.



Operators are equipped with personal protective equipment
such as Mapa Trionic gloves (EN374) when operating the
plating bath containing the marketed solution. Respiratory
protective equipment is not required to operate the bath.

Storage: Store the substance in a cool, dry area away from sources of
ignition. Avoid extreme temperatures.


In practice the 1 litre containers are stored in the
chemical warehouse and transferred to a dedicated exhausted
chemical storage cabinet in the Plating area on an as needs
basis.

Transport to the Plating area is via a dedicated route by
trained personnel.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 1 liter drum bottles made out of high density poly ethylene
material

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None known.

Chemical reaction with water: No reaction with water that is dangerous is known.

Dust explosion: Not applicable.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: There will be no discharge to the environment. Recovery from
minor spillages or accidental discharge is not economically
or technically feasible, and such waste material will be
disposed of by incineration. In principle, it may be
possible to recover larger spillages of uncontaminated
material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: Not possible.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with

inert material (eg. sand or soil) may be disposed of by
incineration in accordance with local regulations.

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 and
nitrogen oxides and chlorine gas) could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance will not normally be discharged directly to
the sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used only within
industry.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used only within
industry.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable as 100% of the substance in the form of the
formulated products is used only within industry.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable as 100% of the substance in the form of the
formulated products is used only within industry.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used only within
industry.

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