SVHC_287-476-5_ENG01 Issue 3 15th October 2009 Material Declaration Page 1 of 1 REACH Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) Notification The following information satisfies the requirement for notifying users of articles containing SVHC per Article 33 of the REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 Company Tyco Electronics Corporation Business Unit Energy Product Compliance Engineer Contacts +44 1793 528171 MSDSEnergy@tycoelectronics.com Article S1225 mastic sealant tape found within various termination/jointing kits Substance Name Alkanes, C10-13, chloro (Short Chain Chlorinated Paraffins - SCCP) Concentration in the Article approx 20-25% EC Number 287-476-5 CAS Number 85535-84-8 Handling Ordinary handling of the tape strips does not present a hazard, when the following precautions are made: avoid repeated or prolonged skin contact with the sealant itself. Refer to MSDS or Product Safety Bulletin as appropriate for detailed hazard or handling information. Disposal Whatever cannot be saved for recovery or recycling should be managed in an appropriate and approved waste disposal facility. Local disposal regulations may differ from national disposal regulations. Treat as Hazardous Waste. Do not release to the environment. The leachability and volatility of short chain length chlorinated paraffins over the lifetime of the sealant is reported to be low. Release of chlorinated paraffins from disposal of articles is also likely to be low, either because high temperature incineration is likely to destroy the chlorinated paraffins, or leaching from landfill is likely to be low due to the high adsorption of the chemicals onto soil.
