Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

General advice:

Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Immediately remove contaminated clothing. If

symptoms persist, seek medical advice.

If inhaled:

Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.

On skin contact:

Wash thoroughly with soap and water.

On contact with eyes:

Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open,

consult an eye specialist.

On ingestion:

Rinse mouth immediately and then drink plenty of water, seek medical attention. Do not induce

vomiting due to aspiration hazard.

Note to physician:

Treatment: Symptomatic treatment (decontamination, vital functions).

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

dry extinguishing media, carbon dioxide, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray

Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons:

water jet

Special protective equipment:

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.

Further information:

Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Use personal protective clothing. Information regarding personal

protective measures see, chapter 8. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing.

Environmental precautions:

Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.

Methods for cleaning up or taking up:

For small amounts: Contain with absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, general purpose

binder, sawdust).

For large amounts: Dike spillage. Cover with blanket of foam (alcohol-resistant foam). Pump off

product.

Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling

Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas.

Protection against fire and explosion:

Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should

be kept handy. If exposed to fire, keep containers cool by spraying with water. Vapours may form

explosive mixture with air. Vapours are heavier than air.

Storage

Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated

place.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection:

Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Particle filter with medium efficiency for solid

and liquid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P2 or FFP2)

Hand protection:

Suitable chemical resistant safety gloves (EN 374) also with prolonged, direct contact

(Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN

374): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), butyl rubber (0.7 mm) and other

Supplementary note: The specifications are based on own tests, literature data and information of

glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g.

temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice

may be much shorter than the determined permeation time.

Eye protection:

Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)

Body protection:

Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting

boots, chemical-protection suit (according to DIN-EN 465).

General safety and hygiene measures:

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety

practice.
