Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artifical
respiration. If breathing is difficult administer oxygen and
seek medical attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes.
Assure adequate flushing by separating the eyelids with
fingers. Seek medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Flush with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Seek medical
attention if there is any adverse skin reaction.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Induce vomiting. Wash out mouth with water provided the
person is conscious. Seek medical attention immediately if
rapid recovery does not occur.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Carbon doixude, water foam and dry powder. Water spray is
recommended to cool exposed containers and equipment.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a
fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon and nitrogen
oxides).

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing
apparatus must be worn.


Fight the fire from a safe distance or protected location.

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.


Avoid dust formation. 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
substance containers.


Dispose of waste material in accordance with local
regulations by incineration.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used under
conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with
any local regulations in order to avoid exposure.


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 equipment should conform to the appropriate
international or national standards.


These measures should be regarded as a minimum.


A respiratory face mask with AP3 filter conforming to EN141
must be worn.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated place, away from
oxidisers, strong acids and strong bases.


Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Stainless steel drums.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None known.

Chemical reaction with water: None which is hazardous.

Dust explosion: Under normal conditions of use this material does not
present a significant explosion hazard. However, like most
organic compounds it is combustible and may form a dust
explosion if widely dispersed in air.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: 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 health hazard has been identified from the Base Set tests

on the substance, so no chemical treatment is necessary.
However, adequate protection will be worn during normal
handling and when dealing with spillages to ensure any
unidentified health hazard is minimised.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with
inert material (eg. sand or soil) may be disposed of by
landfill at an authorised tip in accordance with local
regulations. Large quantities of neat substance must 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
nitorgen 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.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable.

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