Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Move to fresh air.  If irritation occurs seek medical

attention.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Remove contact lens and pour a gentle stream of water over

the affected eye for at least 15 minutes.  Seek medical

attention if irritation occurs.

Emergency measure - Skin: Run a gentle stream of water over the affected area for 15

minutes. A mild soap may be used if available. Seek

medical attention if irritation occurs.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Rinse the inside of the mouth with water.  Do not induce

vomiting.  Drink plenty of water.  Never give anything by

mouth to an unconscious person.  If irritation occurs seek

medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water, water spray, sand, dry powder, carbon dioxide, foam.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire, evolving noxious fumes (e.g. carbon oxides, hydrogen

fluoride and smoke)

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: The substance is a solid and does not present a hazard if

spilled.

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.

Local exhaust ventilation will be provided during all

processing steps.

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 as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard EN374

Chemical protective clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166.

Furthermore, when respiratory protective equipment has to be

used, it must be capable of adequately controlling

exposure, be suitable for purpose, and conform to the

appropriate international or national standards.

These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Sealed plastic bottles (size varies depending on the order:

1000 ml, 2000 ml or 4000 ml) contained in sealed and

appropriately labelled cardboard box containers.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: Incompatible with strong oxidisers and acids.

Chemical reaction with water: None which is hazardous

Dust explosion: The substance is an organic solid and therefore the

possibility of a dust explosion exists.

Avoid dust formation and only use in an area provided with

appropriate local exhaust ventilation.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: 611 Recovery by mechanical collection

Material would not be able to be reused and would be

disposed of by incineration.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The notification tests have shown that the substance is not

hazardous at this supply level.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: 661 Incinerator with flue gas scrubbing

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: 641 Removal by controlled discharge to a waste water

treatment plant.

Waste water containing the substance from lens washing is

sent to a WWTP.  Due to the very small quantities involved,

adverse effects on sewage treatment systems would be

unlikely.
