Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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


Inhalation -- Remove to fresh air. Seek medical attention if cough or other symptoms develop or persist.
Skin Contact -- Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
Eye Contact -- Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Have eyes examined and tested by medical personnel.
Ingestion -- If ingested, call your local physician. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel.

Fire-fighting measures

Use extinguishing media suitable for Class A fires (ordinary combustibles). Carbon dioxide is generally not recommended for use on Class A fires as a lack of cooling capacity may result in reignition.

As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus operated in pressure-demand mode (NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

-Combustible dust clouds may be created where operations produce dust. Minimize dust generation and accumulation,especially on horizontal surfaces and duct work.

-Fine dusts are capable of holding and generating static charge which may act as an ignition source for other flammable or combustible materials. Bond, ground and properly vent containers, conveyors, dust control devices and other transfer equipment. Use only grounded, electrically conductive transfer lines when pneumatically conveying powder.

-Toxic gases may be formed upon combustion and represents a hazard to firefighters.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection.

As with all industrial chemicals, use of good chemical hygiene and environmental stewardship practices is recommended.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Avoid creating dusts. Eliminate ignition sources. If a vacuum is used, use a vacuum designed for combustible dusts or ensure that the material is wetted or otherwise treated so an explosive dust atmosphere is not created within the vacuum.

Handling and storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light to maintain quality.

Product will emit fumes and vapors when heated to processing temperatures. Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe (dust, vapor or fumes). Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not eat, drink or smoke in processing areas.

Elastomer may be held at process temperatures for a short time without significant thermal degradation. However, exposure to elevated temperatures or excessive time will result in decomposition. Equipment should not be shut down for extended time periods with compound in it or decomposition may occur. Employees involved in removing decomposing material should be provided suitable air-supplied respirators, such as an approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus.

Post-processing operations involving heat sufficient to result in polymer breakdown emitting smoke and fumes should be conducted in such a manner to avoid inhalation of fumes. Local exhaust ventilation and respiratory protection may be required. Processing fume condensates, which may include toxic contaminants, may be combustible and should be periodically removed from exhaust hoods, ductwork, and other surfaces.

Clean up following normal processing must be performed with adequate ventilation.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering Controls -- Local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls are normally required when handling or using this product to avoid overexposure.


Eye/Face Protection -- Follow facility guidelines in the absence of dusts. Snug fitting chemical goggles should be worn in dusty work environments.

Skin Protection -- Use of proper chemical hygiene practices is recommended. Wear long sleeves and gloves to prevent skin contact. Wash thoroughly after handling.

Respiratory Protection -- Respiratory protection is not typically required during normal use and handling operations where general dilution or local exhaust ventilation is adequate to control exposures. Approved respiratory protection may be needed if vapor or dust is generated during processing or if the product is ground into a fine powder. Wear a positive pressure air-supplied respirator in situations where there may be potential for elevated airborne exposure such as during equipment malfunction, or product hangup or stagnation during processing that may result in decomposition.

Employees involved in removing decomposing material should be provided suitable air-supplied respirators, such as an approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus.

Post-processing operations involving heat sufficient to result in polymer breakdown emitting smoke and fumes. Local exhaust ventilation and respiratory protection may be required.

Clean up following normal processing must be performed with adequate ventilation.
