Safe Handling & Storage Procedures

Industrial handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace safety requirements

⚠️ Handling Precautions

• When handling heated product, vapours of the product should be ventilated, and respiratory protection used.

• Wear suitable protective clothing and eye/face protection.

• Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing.

• Keep container tightly sealed.

🏪 Storage Conditions

• Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place.

🔥 Fire Prevention Measures

Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame.

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment

🧤 Hand Protection

Suitable chemical resistant safety gloves (EN ISO 374-1) also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN ISO 374-1): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), butyl rubber (0.7 mm) etc. Supplementary note: The specifications are based on 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 permeation time determined through testing.

👁️ Eye Protection

Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)

😷 Respiratory Protection

Respiratory protection not required.

🦺 Skin/Body Protection

Body protection must be chosen based on level of activity and exposure.

Ecological Information & Environmental Impact

Environmental toxicity, biodegradation, bioaccumulation, and ecological effects data

🌱 Toxicity

Assessment of aquatic toxicity: Acutely harmful for aquatic organisms. The inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not anticipated when introduced to biological treatment plants in appropriate low concentrations. Toxicity to fish: LC50 (96 h) > 100 mg/l, Brachydanio rerio (OECD 203; ISO 7346; 92/69/EEC, C.1, static) The details of the toxic effect relate to the nominal concentration. Aquatic invertebrates: EC50 (48 h) 100 mg/l, Daphnia magna (OECD Guideline 202, part 1, static) The details of the toxic effect relate to the nominal concentration. Aquatic plants: EC50 (72 h) > 100 mg/l (growth rate), Desmodesmus subspicatus (OECD Guideline 201, static) The details of the toxic effect relate to the nominal concentration. Microorganisms/Effect on activated sludge: EC20 > 1.000 mg/l, activated sludge, domestic (DIN EN ISO 8192-OECD 209-88/302/EEC,P. C, aerobic)

🌱 Persistence and degradability

Assessment biodegradation and elimination (H2O): Readily biodegradable (according to OECD criteria). Elimination information: 90 - 100 % DOC reduction (21 d) (OECD 301 A (new version)) (aerobic, activated sludge, domestic)

🌱 Bioaccumulative potential

Assessment bioaccumulation potential: Based on its structural properties, the polymer is not biologically available. Accumulation in organisms is not to be expected.

🌱 Mobility in soil

Assessment transport between environmental compartments: Volatility: No data available.

🌱 Results of PBT and vPvB assessment

According to Annex XIII of Regulation (EC) No.1907/2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH): The product does not contain a substance fulfilling the PBT (persistent/bioaccumulative/toxic) criteria or the vPvB (very persistent/very bioaccumulative) criteria. Self classification

🌱 Endocrine disrupting properties

🌱 Other adverse effects

The substance is not listed in Regulation (EC) 1005/2009 on substances that deplete the ozone layer.
