[Chemical Knowledge]：Specification for storage and transport of diethyl succinate

Diethyl succinate in the field of chemical production of raw materials in the safety of storage and transportation specifications

1. Introduction

Diethyl succinate as an important chemical production of raw materials, widely used in medicine, pesticides, plastics, dyes and other fields. However, due to its flammable, toxic and harmful characteristics, the storage and transportation of diethyl succinate put forward strict safety requirements. In order to ensure the safety of diethyl succinate in the process of production, use and transportation, it is very important to formulate a set of scientific and reasonable storage and transportation specifications.

2. Diethyl succinate Physicochemical Properties and Hazard Overview

Diethyl succinate is a colorless transparent liquid with a special odor. The steam and air can form an explosive mixture, fire, high heat caused by combustion explosion. In addition, diethyl succinate is irritating to the eyes, nose and throat, and may cause headache, dizziness, nausea and other symptoms after inhalation. Prolonged contact may cause dry skin, dermatitis, etc.

3. diethyl succinate storage specification

1. The storage place should choose a cool, ventilated and dry place, away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature shall not exceed 30 ℃ and the relative humidity shall not exceed 80%.
2. The storage container shall be a special container with good sealing performance to avoid leakage. The container shall be inspected and maintained regularly to ensure that it is in good condition.
3. The storage area shall be provided with obvious safety warning signs, and equipped with corresponding fire-fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment.
4. In the process of storage, the storage and inventory of diethyl succinate should be strictly controlled to ensure storage safety.

4. diethyl succinate transport specification

1. transport vehicles should meet the transport requirements of dangerous goods, with the corresponding fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment. In the process of transportation, it should keep running smoothly to avoid severe vibration, collision and friction.
2. Before transportation, check whether the packaging of diethyl succinate is intact and whether the label is clear. Discovered packaging damage, leakage, etc. should be dealt with immediately, transport is prohibited.
3. During transportation, keep away from fire, high heat and other dangerous sources, and avoid direct sunlight. The transportation temperature shall not exceed 30 ℃ and the relative humidity shall not exceed 80%.
4. During transportation, traffic rules should be observed and transportation should be carried out according to the specified route and time. Overloading and speeding are strictly prohibited.

5. diethyl succinate safety operation specification

1. operators should be professionally trained to understand the physical and chemical properties and hazards of diethyl succinate, and master safe operation skills and emergency treatment methods.
2. Before operation, check whether the equipment and containers are in good condition to ensure that there will be no leakage, explosion and other accidents during operation.
3. Wear protective clothing, gloves, glasses and other personal protective equipment during operation to avoid direct contact with diethyl succinate.
4. During the operation, the feeding ratio, reaction temperature and pressure and other parameters should be strictly controlled to ensure the smooth and safe reaction process.
5. After the operation, the equipment and containers shall be cleaned and maintained to ensure the safety of the next use.

6. emergency treatment measures

1. In case of leakage of diethyl succinate, the leakage source should be cut off immediately, mixed with sand, dry lime or soda ash and recycled to a special container.
2. In case of fire, the fire source shall be cut off immediately and extinguished with fire extinguisher and foam extinguishing agent. At the same time to the fire department for help.
3. When a person is poisoned, the poisoned person shall be immediately moved to a well-ventilated place, fresh air shall be given, artificial respiration shall be given if necessary, and medical treatment shall be given in time.

7. conclusion

diethyl succinate as an important raw material for chemical production, its safe storage and transportation is very important. By establishing strict storage and transportation regulations, strengthening operator training and management can ensure the safety of diethyl succinate in the production, use and transportation process to reduce potential risks.
