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

The safety of phenylacetone storage and transportation specifications

1. Introduction

Phenylacetone is a common chemical production raw material, 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 phenylacetone in the production, use and disposal process, it is very important to establish strict storage and transportation regulations.

2. the physicochemical properties of phenylacetone

phenylacetone is a colorless transparent liquid with aromatic odor. Its molecular formula is C9H10O, molecular weight is 134.18, density is 1.026g/cm3, boiling point is 202.3 ℃, melting point is -23.5 ℃, flash point is 79 ℃. Phenylacetone is insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol, ether and other organic solvents.

3. the harmfulness of phenylacetone

phenylacetone is toxic to humans, and long-term exposure may cause health problems such as nervous system damage, liver damage, and skin irritation. In addition, phenylacetone is also flammable and may cause combustion or explosion when exposed to open flame, high heat or oxidant.

4. phenylacetone storage specification

1. storage place should be dry, well ventilated, away from open flame, heat source.
2. Storage containers shall be well sealed to prevent leakage.
3. The storage area shall be provided with obvious safety warning signs, and smoking and open fire shall be prohibited.
4. Regularly check the integrity of the storage container, and deal with the leakage in time.

5. phenylacetone transport specification

1. transport vehicles should meet the transport requirements of dangerous goods, with fire, explosion, anti-static and other safety facilities.
2. During transportation, it should be kept stable to avoid violent vibration, collision or friction.
3. Transport personnel should be professionally trained and familiar with the nature of phenylacetone and transport safety requirements.
4. During transportation, traffic rules should be observed to keep the speed stable and avoid sudden braking and other operations.

6. emergency treatment measures

1. In case of phenylacetone leakage, the leakage source should be cut off immediately, mixed with sand, dry lime or soda ash to absorb, and transferred to a safe place.
2. In case of fire, the fire source shall be cut off immediately, and the fire extinguishing equipment such as foam, dry powder and carbon dioxide shall be used to extinguish the fire.
3. If any person has discomfort after contact with phenylacetone, he or she should immediately disengage from contact and seek medical treatment.

7. conclusion

phenylacetone as a common chemical production raw material, its safe storage and transportation is very important. Through strict compliance with storage and transportation regulations, the safety risks of phenylacetone in the production, use and disposal process can be reduced, and the safety of personnel and the environment can be guaranteed.
