Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 advice: Remove contaminated clothing. First aid personnel should pay attention to their own safety.

If inhaled: Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention. If breathing difficulties develop, aid in breathing and seek immediate medical attention.

On skin contact: Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist.

On contact with eyes: In case of contact with the eyes, rinse immediately for at least 15 minutes with plenty of water. Immediate medical attention required.

On ingestion: Immediately rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water, do not induce vomiting, seek medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: Dry sand, dry extinguishing media, alcohol-resistant foam

Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons: water, carbon dioxide, chlorinated hydrocarbons

Specific hazards: Risk of exothermic reaction. Contact with water releases highly flammable and/or corrosive gases/vapours.

Special protective equipment: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.

Further information: Vapours are heavier than air and may accumulate in low areas and travel a considerable distance up to the source of ignition. Contain contaminated water/firefighting water. Sealed containers should be protected against heat as this results in pressure build-up.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions: Use personal protective clothing. Sources of ignition should be kept well clear.

Environmental precautions: Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater. Contain contaminated water/firefighting water.

Methods for cleaning up or taking up:

- For large amounts: Place into suitable container for disposal. Correctly dispose of recovered product immediately.

- For residues: Pick up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, earth etc.). Correctly dispose of recovered product immediately.

Additional information: Release of substance/product can cause fire or explosion.

Handling and storage

Handling

Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Protect against moisture. Protect against heat. Refill and handle product only in closed system.

Protection against fire and explosion: Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use antistatic tools. Render equipment and apparatus inert (nitrogen, inert gases) and ground before putting into operation. Fire extinguishers should be kept handy.

Storage

Segregate from acids and acid forming substances. Segregate from oxidants.

Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep under dry nitrogen. Protect against heat. Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame.

Exposure controls / personal protection

1. Technical protection measures

2. Organisational protection measures: avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breathe vapour/spray. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift.

3. Hand protection: chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)

Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374): chloroprene rubber (CR) - 0.5 mm coating thickness

Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.

Supplementary note: The specifications are based on own tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g.temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the determined permeation time.

4. Feet protection: see body protection measures

5. Body protection: body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting boots, chemical-protection suit (according to DIN-EN 465).

6. Eye protection: tightly fitting safety goggles (cage goggles) (e.g. EN 166) and face shield.

7. Respiratory protection: wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds (boiling point >65 °C, e. g. EN 14387 Type A)
