1. Introduction

n-Butanol is a common chemical production raw material, widely used in coatings, plastics, pharmaceuticals, solvents and other fields. However, due to its flammable, toxic, corrosive and other characteristics, n-butanol has certain safety risks during storage and transportation. Therefore, in order to ensure the safe use of n-butanol, the relevant safety regulations must be strictly observed.

2. the dangerous characteristics of n-butanol

1. Flammability: n-butanol has a low flash point and is easy to cause combustion in case of open flame or high temperature.

2. Toxicity: n-butanol has certain toxicity to human body. Prolonged exposure or inhalation of high concentration n-butanol vapor may lead to poisoning.

3. Corrosiveness: n-Butanol is corrosive to metals and some non-metallic materials.

3. of n-butanol storage specification

1. storage place should be dry, ventilated, cool, and away from open flame, heat source.

2. The storage container should be well sealed to prevent leakage.

3. The storage area shall be equipped with corresponding fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment.

4. During the storage process, the integrity of the container should be checked regularly, and the leakage should be handled in time.

4. of n-butanol transport specification

1. Transport vehicles should comply with relevant standards, with explosion-proof, fire prevention, anti-static and other safety facilities.

2. During transportation, it should be kept stable and avoid violent vibration, collision and friction.

3. During transportation, it should be away from open flames and high temperature areas. Smoking and open flames are strictly prohibited.

4. Transport personnel should be professionally trained to understand the hazardous characteristics of n-butanol and emergency treatment measures.
Emergency treatment measures for
5. of n-butanol

1. In case of leakage, the leakage source shall be cut off immediately and recycled to the waste treatment site after mixing with sand, dry lime or soda ash.

2. In case of fire, immediately cut off the fire source and use foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide and other fire extinguishers to extinguish the fire.

3. In case of poisoning symptoms after exposure to n-butanol, the patient should be moved to a ventilated place immediately to keep the respiratory tract unobstructed and seek medical treatment in time.

6. conclusion

n-butanol as a common chemical production raw material, there are certain safety risks in the process of storage and transportation. In order to ensure the safe use of n-butanol, we must strictly abide by the relevant safety regulations, and take effective measures to prevent and deal with possible safety accidents. At the same time, relevant enterprises and individuals should also strengthen safety awareness and training, improve their ability to respond to emergencies, and ensure the safety of people's lives and property.
