IDENTIFICATION OF THE SUBSTANCE OR PREPARATION

DECAPAGE Z or DEGREASER AL (code: 10007)

or Cleaning & Deoxidising Z (code: DPR 5060)
USE OF THE SUBSTANCE / PREPARATION
This solution is used at ambient temperature with the brush electrolysis process for degreasing all cuprous metals,
aluminium, aluminium alloys, silver and white metals. It is not sufficiently effective on ferrous metals. In that case, we
recommend using the DEGREASER ST solution.
The specificity of the brush process is it can be applied locally, just where it is necessary, i.e. without immersion of the part.
Thus, only small quantities of solutions are stored or used.

4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
CONTACT WITH SKIN
Take off contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash immediately with plenty of water. Take a shower if necessary.
CONTACT WITH EYES
Rinse immediately with plenty of water for approximately 15 minutes.
Consult an ophthalmologist in all cases.
INHALATION
Theoretically, not applicable. Under abnormal conditions of use causing considerable inhalation, remove the casualty from
the contaminated area, let him take a rest in a well-ventilated room and seek medical advice. Delayed symptoms may
appear. Consequently, hospitalize quickly the person for a supervision of the effects and the starting of a treatment. Begin
an ocular and cutaneous decontamination while waiting for the first aid.
INGESTION
Do not give anything to drink. Do not induce vomiting. Call immediately the medical service. Hospitalize quickly the person
for a supervision of the effects and the starting of a treatment.
PROTECTION OF THE FIRST-AIDERS
According to the situation, wear: clothes and protective shoes or masks Wear at least gloves and glasses.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
5 - FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Water spray, powders and special foams for polar liquids.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA WHICH SHALL NOT BE USED
No.
SPECIFIC HAZARDS
Avoid contact with powerful oxidizing agents, acids or organic products.
Dangerous thermal decomposition products: toxic and pungent fumes; notably emission of carbon oxides and of nitrogen
oxides.
For diethylenetriamine:
- Flash point : 98C (closed cupel), 102C (open cupel),
- Boiling point: 207C at atmospheric pressure.
- Ignition point: 358 to 399C.
Prevent any material from entering drains or waterways or soil.
PROTECTION OF THE FIRE-FIGHTERS
Because of the substances that are produced during thermal decomposition, use approved self-contained breathing
equipment and protective clothing in case of intervention.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
Avoid contact with the skin, the clothes and the eyes: wear at least gloves, glasses and if needed a FFP3 mask.
Dispose of all contaminated clothing or shoes and wash thoroughly with water.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS
Do not allow the product to be thrown away. Recover as much as possible for processing within the firm or by an approved
centre.
METHODS FOR CLEANING UP
Rinse with water to remove all non-recoverable products. Before throwing rinsing water, check the pH is between 5.5 and
8.5.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING
Use as supplied. Close containers (in PE) tightly after use with the original cap. Do not re-use containers with another
product.
STORAGE
Store away from acids, powerful oxidizing agents and organic products in general. Keep in original containers only,
between 5 and 30C in a room away from direct sun-light. The maximum recommended shelf life is three years from the

8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION

EXPOSURE CONTROLS
TECHNICAL MEASURES
No drinking, eating or smoking on the workplace.
Maintain the premises and the workplace in a perfect state of cleanliness and clean them frequently.
As the product is used at ambient temperature during a short time, the values below are generally not reached. They
depend on the treatment time, the surface area treated and on the quality of the workshop air extraction.
EXPOSURE LIMIT VALUES IN AIR

Average value (8h)= 4 mg/m

(1 ppm) (INRS file nND 2098)

PERSONAL PROTECTION
Provide a shower, a powerful tap and sink unit, and an eye basin in the vicinity of the work place.
- Respiratory protection: during brush electrolysis, provide if possible an inhaling of the vapours / sprays where they are
created and extraction out of the premises, or at least work in a ventilated room and wear if necessary a filtering FFP3
mask (EN 149:2001 standard) or an A2P3 or K2P3 cartridge (EN 405:2002 standard).
- Hand protection: wear imperatively gloves (in latex or nitrile for example).
- Eye protection: wear imperatively glasses with lateral protections or a facial screen. Do not wear contact lenses.

9 - PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
-

Appearance: pale yellow liquid between -8C and 100C.

Odour: odourless.
pH: 9.7.
Relative density: 1.11.
Solubility: miscible in water in all proportions.
Boiling point: approximately 100C.
Crystallisation / melting point: - 8C.
Flammability: nil.
Oxidising properties: nil.
Risk of explosion or fire: when the temperature permits evolution of diethylenetriamine vapours, these can form
exploding mixtures with air in the limits of 1 to 10% in volume. The vapours are heavier than air.
Other properties: diethylenetriamine is hardly volatile at ambient temperature.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
10 - STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
STABILITY
Good at normal temperature with water evaporation for only risk.
Good in humidity. Exposed to air, diethylenetriamine tends to oxidize very slowly becoming yellow. The reaction is
accelerated by light.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID
High temperatures.
MATERIALS TO AVOID
Acids, metals like copper, nickel and cobalt, powerful oxidizers and organic products in general especially if the product
has been concentrated or has been dehydrated.
HAZARDOUS THERMAL DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS
Notably emission of carbon oxides and of nitrogen oxides.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
No data are available regarding the preparation. The evaluation of health hazards has been realised thanks to
directives 67/548/EC, 1999/45/EC and bibliographical data.
METABOLISM
Experimentation on animals has shown that diethylenetriamine is easily absorbed from the gastro-intestinal tractus as by
percutaneous way.
SKIN
Irritating (the severity depends on the contact length). Due to the presence of diethylenetriamine, may also cause the
appearance of recurring eczemas on some sensitive people.

EYE MUCOSA
Irritating (the severity depends on the length of contact). Possible conjunctivitises. In case of contact, risk of superficial
lesions of the cornea with oedema. These lesions are more or less serious and heal slowly.
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
May cause sensitisation by inhalation (asthma) on some sensitive people because of diethylenetriamine presence.
IN CASE OF INGESTION
Pains, gastro-intestinal problems and vomiting are possible. Diethylenetriamine eliminates naturally within 48 h (96%).
INDUSTRIAL DISEASES: tables n49, 49a (in FRANCE).

Not easily biodegradable.
Elimination from water: < 10 % (13 j), OCDE 302B, industrial activated sludge.
Chemical demand in oxygen: 1.315 mg/g.
