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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Skin Contact: Wash exposed area twice with soap and water. The exposed area should be examined by medical personnel if irritation or pain persists after the area has been washed.

Eye Contact: Rinse eyes immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the eyelids. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.

Inhalation: Remove from exposure area to fresh air immediately. If breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration. Keep affected person warm and at rest. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION if breathing is difficult.

Ingestion: Contact physician or poison control center immediately.

Fire-fighting measures

Appropriate Extinguishing Media: Use water fog, alcohol resistant foam, carbon dioxide, or dry chemical.

Hazardous Products of Combustion: Toxic fumes may be released upon thermal decomposition (cyanides, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide).

Potential for Dust Explosion: No data available -- handle in a manner that prevents generation of potentially explosive dust.

Special Flammability Hazards: This product is an organic solid. As such, in its finely divided form, this product has the potential to present a dust explosion hazard under certain conditions, although no dust explosion data is currently available. Handle this product in a manner that prevents dust generation and accumulation, and refer to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 654 for further information on prevention of dust explosions.

Basic Fire Fighting Guidance: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing (i.e., Bunker gear). Skin and eye contact should be avoided. Normal fire fighting procedures may be used.

Accidental release measures

Environmental precautions:  Prevent releases to soils, drains, sewers, and waterways.

Containment Techniques and Clean-up Procedures: Remove all ignition sources. Ventilate the area of spill or leak. Wear protective equipment during clean-up. Material can then be collected for later disposal. After collection of material, flush area with water. Dispose of the material in accordance with standard practice for disposal of potentially hazardous materials as required by applicable federal, state or local laws.

Handling and storage

Practices to Minimize Risk: Wear appropriate protective equipment when performing maintenance on contaminated equipment. Wash hands thoroughly before eating or smoking after handling this material.

Storage Precautions & Recommendations: Maintain dry, ventilated conditions for storage. Protect containers against physical damage. Keep away from strong acids, strong bases and oxidizing agents.

Dangerous Incompatibility Reactions: Avoid strong acids, strong bases, and oxidizing agents.

Incompatibilities with Materials of Construction: none known

Exposure controls / personal protection

Personal Protective Equipment: Approved dust mask, or air-purifying negative pressure respirator with dust (HEPA) cartridges. Chemical goggles; face shields if necessary. Impervious clothing and boots. Neoprene, nitrile or PVCcoated gloves.

Respirator Caution: Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 CFR 1910.134). Air-purifying respirators must not be used in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.

Ventilation: All operations should be conducted in well-ventilated conditions. Local exhaust ventilation should be provided.

Other Engineering Controls: All appropriate engineering controls should be used to minimize exposure potential. Use exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below exposure limits.

Thermal Hazards: Not applicable.

Additive or Synergistic Effects: None known.

Stability and reactivity

Not classified as dangerously reactive.  Stable.  Hazardous autopolymerization will not occur.  Avoid static discharge and generation of dust. Avoid ignition sources, and sources of heat.  Toxic fumes may be released upon thermal decomposition (cyanides, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide).

Disposal considerations

Dispose of this material in accordance with standard practice for disposal of potentially hazardous materials as required by applicable international, national, regional, state or local laws. Do NOT dump into any sewers, on the ground, or into any body of water. For disposal within the EC, the appropriate code according to the European Waste Catalogue (EWC) should be used. Note that disposal regulations may also apply to empty containers and equipment rinsates.
