Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: In case of inhalation, remove patient to fresh air. If not

breathing give artificial respiration. If breathing is

difficult give oxygen.

Emergency measure - Eyes: In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with plenty of

water and seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Skin: In case of contact with skin, wash with copious amounts of

water.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray, dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide or foam may

be used.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon and sulfur oxides).

However, there is no experimental evidence to support the

anticipated combustion products.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and 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 as

mentioned in section 2.3.10.

Absorb spillages of solutions with a suitable inert material

(eg sand or soil). Carefully transfer the spillage to waste

containers, or use a sealed industrial vacuum machine.

Containers filled with waste material must be labelled in

the same way as the original containers.

Clean the spillage area with water and detergent.

Dispose of waste material by incineration in accordance with

local regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling: To transfer the substance from its drum to the reactor, a

open proper system is used without possibility of spillages.

This process takes less than 60 minutes for each 140 kg

batch.

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 equipmemt should conform to the appropriate

European and Italian standards.

The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a

minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, protected from

heat sources.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 210 litre polyethylene drums of a thickness greater than 3.5

mm with screw caps.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None reported.

Chemical reaction with water: None reported 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 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: No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the

hazardous health or environmental 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 and

sulfur oxides) could be 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 sewage treatment systems would be

unlikely.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable as the substance will not enter the public

domain.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.
