Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

breathing, administer artificial respiration, if breathing

with difficulty, administer oxygen, seek immediate medical

attention.

Emergency measure - Eyes: It exposure to the eyes has occurred, flush copiously with

water for at least 15 minutes, if irritation develops, seek

medical attention.

Emergency measure - Skin: Skin contact is not expected to cause injury, but medical

attention should be sought if the patient feels unwell.

Contaminated skin should be washed with warm soapy water.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Ingestion is not expected to cause injury, but medical

attention should be sought if the patient feels unwell.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water, foam, CO2 or dry chemical.

Extinguish the fire with liberal amounts of water from a

safe distance.

Spray plenty of water to sides of the containers nearby fire

to cool them, and remove them to a safe place if possible.

Product arising from burning: May produce CO,CO2 and fumes caused by them as decomposition

products.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Use self-contained breathing apparatus and protective gear

in case of burning in large quantities.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Clean up with a vacuum cleaner.

Wear suitable protective clothing, including goggles and

dust mask or respirator, especially in dealing with large

spills. Ventilate enclosed areas.

Handling and storage

Handling: The new substance has been formulated into toner which will

be imported into Europe in tape sealed cartridges, ready to

use in photocopiers. Only the seal tape needs to be opened

immediately before use. After use, the formulated product

containing the notified substance will be fused onto paper

as a water insoluble matrix. Therefore, there will be very

low exposure under normal use conditions.

To minimize occupational exposure to the new chemical

entity, the precautions specified in the suppliers MSDS (see

9.2.03) should be observed:

1. Store in a cool place

2. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame

3. Use with adequate ventilation.

4. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing

5. Avoid contact with water or moisture

6. Keep out reach of children

Storage: The formulated product containing the new substance will be

imported in plastic cartridges weighing about 0.2 kg. These

are packed into cardboard boxes. Therefore, minimal

conditions of storage apply:

1. Store in a well ventilated environment out of direct

sunlight.

2. Store in dark and cool place.

3. Keep well away from sources of ignition (for example:

sparks, naked flames).

4. Do not store with strong oxidising agents.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The new substance will be imported in plastic cartridges

weighing about 0.2 kg. These are packed into cardboard

boxes.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: The notified substance is not considered flammable nor

combustible, but will burn if involved in a fire.

Chemical reaction with water: The notified substance is not insoluble, but hydrolyzed with

water. The substance quietly reacts with water and forms

methanol. However, the environmental hazard of notified

substance is expected to be minimal, as the involved

quantity are small.

Dust explosion: No information available.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: 612

Spilled material may be recovered for re-use provided no

contamination has occurred. Contaminated material is

unusable and must be disposed of.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: 634

Risk of combustion can be reduced by blending with inert

materials prior to disposal by land-fill.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: 665

May be burned in a chemical incinerator equipped with an

after-burner and scrubber - using the appropriate cautions

in dealing with flammable material.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The notified substance is insoluble, but hydrolyzes with

water. Therefore, bulk discharge to waterways or sewage

systems should be avoided.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance is not available to the general public, except

in the form of print - containing less than 1% weight of the

notified substance in a polymer formulation - on copy.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: See above.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: See above.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: See above.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: See above.

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