Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Emergency measure - Inhalation: - Move exposed person to fresh air. In case of indisposition

seek medical advice.
Emergency measure - Eyes: - Rinse with plenty of water. If irritation occurs, seek

medical advice.
Emergency measure - Skin: - Wash with soap and water.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: - Symptomatic treatment. In case of indisposition seek

medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: - Water, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide.

Product arising from burning: - Combustion products may contain carbon, nitrogen and sul-

fur oxides, together with hydrogen chloride gas.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: - Wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: - Wear protective clothing (dust mask, safety goggles and

impermeable gloves).


Solids: Sweep up (wet powders with water) and place in

suitable containers for disposal.

Liquids: Absorb using an adequate absorbent (eg. kiesel-

guhr, sand, saw dust, kieselgel), collect and

place in suitable containers for disposal.


Dispose of waste material in authorised incineration

facility.

Handling and storage

Handling: - Observe the usual precautions for handling chemicals. If

the substance is handled as powder, avoid inhalation of

dust and wear dust mask. Use equipment for handling pow-

ders or other appropriate engineering controls.

Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

Storage: - The substance should be stored in well sealed and secure

containers in adequate rooms at room temperature.

Avoid dust residue outside the containers.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: - 25 kg fiber drums

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: - None known.

Chemical reaction with water: - No dangerous reaction with water.

Dust explosion: - Not to be expected if handled under good industrial hygie-

ne practices.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: - Normal application results in the consumption of approx.

99 % by irreversible binding to the textile fibres.

Recovery for recycling of the remaining substance is not

reasonably practicable.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: - The substance showed harmful acute effects to aquatic

organisms.

Therefore, a possible method of neutralisation of the

hazardous effects is the following:


The waste water can be purified by membrane filtration

or by floculation with cationic agents or by treatment

with ozone. The most effective method is the membrane fil-

tration: more than 99% of the remaining dyestuff can be

removed from the waste water.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: - Not suitable for deposit in landfill site.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: - Discharge by incineration at high temperatures (>800°C)

in a suitable facility with the equipment necessary to

remove oxides of sulfur and nitrogen as well as metal de-

rivatives.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: - It is estimated that 1 % of the total quantity used is

discharged into internal industrial effluents as highly

diluted solution. A purification of the waste water in a

waste water treatment plant is recommended. The dyestuff

should be used in a well equiped dye house.
