Data platform availability banner - registered substances factsheets

Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data

First-aid measures

Inhalation       If exposed to excessive levels of dusts or fumes, remove to fresh air and get medical attention if cough or other symptoms develop. If breathing is difficult, trained personnel should give oxygen.

Skin contact        Immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.

Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Eye contact       Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician

Ingestion If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). IF SWALLOWED:

Immediately call a POISON CENTRE or doctor/physician. Do not induce vomiting without advice

from poison control center

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media       Water. Foam. Dry chemical powder.

Unsuitable extinguishing media       Carbon dioxide (CO2).

Explosion hazard: Avoid generating dust; fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations and

in the presence of an ignition source is a potential dust explosion hazard. Toxic, corrosive or

flammable thermal decomposition products, which might include fluorine and chlorine compounds,

are expected when the material is exposed to fire.

Accidental release measures

For non-emergency

personnel

Use only non-sparking tools. Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and

upwind of spill/leak. Dust deposits should not be allowed to accumulate on surfaces, as these may

form an explosive mixture if they are released into the atmosphere in sufficient concentration.

Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not breathe dust. Ensure

adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be

contained.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read

and understood. Minimise dust generation and accumulation. Avoid significant deposits of

material, especially on horizontal surfaces, which may become airborne and form combustible dust

clouds and may contribute to secondary explosions. Routine housekeeping should be instituted to

ensure that dusts do not accumulate on surfaces. Dry powders can build static electricity charges

when subjected to the friction of transfer and mixing operations. Provide adequate precautions,

such as electrical grounding and bonding, or inert atmospheres. Keep away from heat/sparks/open

flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Ground/bond container and receiving equipment.

Explosion-proof general and local exhaust ventilation. Do not breathe dust. Avoid prolonged

exposure. Do not taste or swallow. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Should be handled in

closed systems, if possible. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands

thoroughly after handling. Avoid release to the environment. Observe good industrial hygiene

practices.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Store away from incompatible materials

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls: Appropriate engineering controls

Ventilate as needed to control airborne dust. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment if airborne dust levels are high. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

Personal protection equipment should be chosen according to the CEN standards and in

discussion with the supplier of the personal protective equipment. Follow all local regulations if

personal protective equipment (PPE) is used in the workplace.

Eye/face protection

Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).

Hand protection

Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. Select suitable chemical resistant protective gloves

(EN 374) with a protective index 6 (>480min permeation time). Glove selection must take into

account any solvents and other hazards present. The choice of an appropriate glove does not only

depend on its material but also on other quality features and is different from one producer to the

other.

Stability and reactivity

The product is stable and non-reactive under normal conditions of use, storage and transport.

Chemical stability Material is stable under normal conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

Conditions to avoid: Heat, flames and sparks. Minimise dust generation and accumulation. Contact with incompatible materials. Avoid dispersion as a dust cloud.

Incompatible materials Strong oxidising agents.

Hazardous decomposition products

Irritating and/or toxic fumes and gases may be emitted upon the product's decomposition

Disposal considerations

Residual waste Dispose of in accordance with local regulations. Empty containers or liners may retain some

product residues. This material and its container must be disposed of in a safe manner )

Contaminated packaging Since emptied containers may retain product residue, follow label warnings even after container is

emptied. Empty containers should be taken to an approved waste handling site for recycling or

disposal.

EU waste code The Waste code should be assigned in discussion between the user, the producer and the waste

disposal company.

Disposal methods/information Collect and reclaim or dispose in sealed containers at licensed waste disposal site. Do not allow

this material to drain into sewers/water supplies. Do not contaminate ponds, waterways or ditches

with chemical or used container. Dispose of contents/container in accordance with

local/regional/national/international regulations.

Special precautions Dispose in accordance with all applicable regulations.
