[Chemical Knowledge]：Specification for storage and transport of epoxycyclohexane

The safety of epoxy cyclohexane storage and transportation specifications

1. Introduction

epoxy cyclohexane is an important chemical production raw materials, widely used in medicine, pesticides, spices and other fields. However, due to its flammable, toxic and other characteristics, the safety requirements for storage and transportation are extremely high. In order to ensure the safety of epoxy cyclohexane in the process of production, use and transportation, it is very important to formulate a set of strict storage and transportation specifications.

2. the physicochemical properties of epoxycyclohexane

epoxycyclohexane is a colorless transparent liquid with pungent odor. Melting point -96 ℃, boiling point 120.8 ℃, relative density 0.9624(20/4 ℃), refractive index 1.4306, flash point (open cup) 43 ℃, ignition point 470 ℃. Can be miscible with ethanol, ether, slightly soluble in water. It is stable in nature, does not react with acid and alkali, and reacts with ferric chloride solution to generate blue-purple. Flammable, in case of high heat and open flame, there is a danger of burning. Can react strongly with oxidants. Toxic, 25 times more toxic than cyclohexane.

3. epoxy cyclohexane storage specification

1. storage place should be cool, ventilated, away from fire, heat source. The warehouse temperature should not exceed 30 ℃. Keep the container sealed, should be stored separately from the oxidant, do not mix storage. Explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities shall be adopted. It is forbidden to use mechanical equipment and tools that are easy to produce sparks. The storage area should be equipped with leakage emergency treatment equipment and suitable containment materials.
2. Handle and unload lightly to prevent damage to packaging and containers.

4. epoxy cyclohexane transport specification

1. transport vehicles should be equipped with the corresponding variety and quantity of fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment. The exhaust pipe of the vehicle to which this product is shipped shall be equipped with a fire retardant device. During transportation, ensure that the container does not leak, collapse, fall or damage. It is strictly prohibited to mix and transport with oxidant, etc. During transportation, it shall be protected from sun exposure, rain and high temperature. Stay away from kindling and heat sources during stopover. The vehicles shall be thoroughly cleaned after transportation.
2. railway transportation should be carried out in strict accordance with the Ministry of Railways "dangerous goods transport rules" in the dangerous goods loading table. The package shall be complete at the time of shipment and the loading shall be safe. During transportation, ensure that the container does not leak, collapse, fall or damage. It is strictly prohibited to mix with oxidants, edible chemicals, etc. During transportation, the transportation vehicles shall be equipped with corresponding types and quantities of fire-fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment. The exhaust pipe of the vehicle to which this product is shipped shall be equipped with a fire retardant device. During transportation, it shall be protected from sun exposure, rain and high temperature. Road transportation shall be carried out according to the prescribed route, and do not stop in residential areas and densely populated areas. It is forbidden to slip away during railway transportation.

5. epoxy cyclohexane safe operation specification

1. Closed operation, full ventilation. Operators must be specially trained and strictly abide by the operating procedures. It is recommended that operators wear self-priming filtering respirator (half mask), chemical safety goggles, anti-static overalls and rubber oil-resistant gloves. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Smoking is strictly prohibited in the workplace. Use explosion-proof ventilation systems and equipment. Prevent vapor leakage into the workplace air. Avoid contact with oxidizing agents. When filling, the flow rate should be controlled, and there is a grounding device to prevent static accumulation. Handle lightly to prevent damage to packaging and containers. Equipped with corresponding types and quantities of fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment. Empty containers may leave harmful substances.
2. Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat source. The temperature of the warehouse should not exceed 37 ℃. Keep container sealed. Should be stored separately from the oxidant, do not mix storage. Explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities shall be adopted. It is forbidden to use mechanical equipment and tools that are easy to produce sparks. The storage area should be equipped with leakage emergency treatment equipment and suitable containment materials.

6. conclusion

epoxy cyclohexane as an important raw material for chemical production, its safe storage and transportation is very important. By strictly complying with the above specifications, the safety of epoxy cyclohexane in the production, use and transportation process can be effectively guaranteed, the risk of accidents can be reduced, and the life safety of personnel and the property safety of enterprises can be guaranteed.
