Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: Remove immediately to fresh air. Seek immediate medical
attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 15
minutes. If irritation occurs seek medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Immediately wash skin with soap and copious amounts of
water. If irritation occurs seek immediate medical
assistance.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical assistance.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder or appropriate foam

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


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.


Clean the spillage area with soap and water.


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

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be 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 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 the purpose, and conform to the appropriate
international or national standards, such as a vapour mask
conforming to EN405 FFA1.

These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in dark, cool and dry conditions.


Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 205 litre drum, steel construction, poly-lined.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: Possibility of forming peroxides.

Chemical reaction with water: Possibility of forming peroxides

Dust explosion: There is no explosion hazard from this organic liquid.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Discharge to the environment will be minimal. 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: The notification tests have shown that the substance is
harmful and corrosive.

No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the
hazardous health properties.

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
incineration.

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
oxides) could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance will not normally be discharged directly to
the sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable, the substance will not enter the public
domain.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable
