Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

General information: Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the materials involved, and take precautions to protect themselves.

Inhalation: Move to fresh air. Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist.

Skin contact: rinse skin with water/shower. Get medical attention, if irritation develops and persists.

Eye contact: Rinse skin with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: get medical advice/attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: water (preferred), dry chemical, foam

Unsuitable extinguishing media: None known. Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.

Accidental release measures

For non-emergency personnel: Avoid skin contact with the spilled material

For emergency responders: Avoid skin contact with the spilled material

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Large spills: Stop the flow of the material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water.

Small spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.

Never return spills in original containers for re-use.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling: Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Keep container tightly closed. Keep out of the reach of children. Store in corrosive resistant container with a resistant inner liner.

Specific end use: Not available.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Appropriate engineering controls: good ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.

General information: Eye wash fountain is recommended.

Eye/face protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).

Skin protection:

Hand protection: Chemical resistant gloves (EN 374), Use protective gloves made of: Neoprene, Chloroprene, Nitrile. Min: 0.65 mm, Camapren® or Nitopren®717.

Other: Wear suitable protective clothing.

Respiratory protection: When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators.

Thermal hazards: Not available.

Hygiene measures: When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Do not get in eyes. Avoid contact with skin. Wash hands after handling and before eating. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices.
