Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

General advice : In the case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately.

When symptoms persist or in all cases of doubt seek medical advice.

Protection of first-aiders : First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection, and use the recommended personal protective equipment when the potential for exposure exists.

If inhaled : If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

In case of skin contact : In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.

Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.

In case of eye contact : In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If easy to do, remove contact lens, if worn. Get medical attention immediately.

If swallowed : If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting.

Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Rinse mouth thoroughly with water.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media : Water spray

Alcohol-resistant foam

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Dry chemical

Unsuitable extinguishing media: High volume water jet

Specific hazards during firefighting: Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.

Exposure to combustion products may be a hazard to health.

Hazardous combustion products: Carbon oxides Metal oxides Sulphur oxides

Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

Use personal protective equipment.

Specific extinguishing methods: Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.Use water spray to cool unopened containers.Remove undamaged containers from fire area if it is safe to do so.Evacuate area.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions : Use personal protective equipment.

Follow safe handling advice and personal protective equipment recommendations.

Environmental precautions: Discharge into the environment must be avoided. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water.

Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.

Methods for cleaning up : Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in suitable container for disposal.

Avoid dispersal of dust in the air (i.e., clearing dust surfaces with compressed air).

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.

Local or national regulations may apply to releases and disposal of this material, as well as those materials and items employed in the cleanup of releases. You will need to determine which regulations are applicable.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Technical measures : Static electricity may accumulate and ignite suspended dust causing an explosion.

Provide adequate precautions, such as electrical grounding and bonding, or inert atmospheres.

Local/Total ventilation : Use only with adequate ventilation.

Advice on safe handling : Do not get on skin or clothing.

Do not breathe dust.

Do not swallow. Do not get in eyes.

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Keep container tightly closed.

Minimize dust generation and accumulation.

Keep container closed when not in use.

Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Take care to prevent spills, waste and minimize release to the environment.

Hygiene measures : Ensure that eye flushing systems and safety showers are located close to the working place. When using do not eat, drink or smoke.

Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.

Requirements for storage areas and containers : Keep in properly labelled containers. Keep tightly closed. Store in accordance with the particular national regulations.

Advice on common storage Do not store with the following product types: Strong oxidizing agents

Exposure controls / personal protection

Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.

Minimize workplace exposure concentrations.

Apply measures to prevent dust explosions.

Ensure that dust-handling systems (such as exhaust ducts, dust collectors, vessels, and pro- cessing equipment) are designed in a manner to prevent the escape of dust into the work area (i.e., there is no leakage from the equipment).

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection : Wear the following personal protective equipment:

Chemical resistant goggles must be worn.

If splashes are likely to occur, wear: Face-shield

Hand protection Material : Impervious gloves

Remarks : Choose gloves to protect hands against chemicals depending on the concentration and quantity of the hazardous substance and specific to place of work. Breakthrough time is not determined for the product. Change gloves often! For special

applications, we recommend clarifying the resistance to chemicals of the aforementioned protective gloves with the glove manufacturer. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.

Skin and body protection : Select appropriate protective clothing based on chemical resistance data and an assessment of the local exposure potential.

Skin contact must be avoided by using impervious protective clothing (gloves, aprons, boots, etc).

Respiratory protection : Use respiratory protection unless adequate local exhaust ventilation is provided or exposure assessment demonstrates that exposures are within recommended exposure guidelines.

Filter type : Particulates type (P)

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity:

Not classified as a reactivity hazard.

Chemical stability:

Stable under normal conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

Hazardous reactions : Dust can form an explosive mixture in air.

Can react with strong oxidizing agents

Conditions to avoid : None known.

Incompatible materials

Materials to avoid : Oxidizing agents

Hazardous decomposition products

No hazardous decomposition products are known.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods Product : Dispose of in accordance with local regulations.

According to the European Waste Catalogue, Waste Codes are not product specific, but application specific.

Waste codes should be assigned by the user, preferably in discussion with the waste disposal authorities.

Contaminated packaging : Empty containers should be taken to an approved waste han- dling site for recycling or disposal.

If not otherwise specified: Dispose of as unused product
