Read： 676 Time：20months ago Source：Transform the World with Simplicity

1. Introduction

LDPE (low density polyethylene) is a widely used plastic material with excellent chemical resistance, electrical insulation and processing properties, so it has important application value in the field of chemical production raw materials. However, due to its flammability and easy to generate static electricity, LDPE has certain safety risks during storage and transportation. Therefore, in order to ensure the safe storage and transportation of LDPE, corresponding specifications need to be formulated.

2. LDPE safe storage specification

1. The storage place should be dry, ventilated, moisture-proof, and avoid direct sunlight.
2. The storage site shall be provided with fire-fighting equipment and the fire passage shall be ensured unobstructed.
3. LDPE should be stored on pallets or shelves with a height of not less than 10cm from the ground to avoid the impact of moisture or water on the material.
4. During storage, LDPE should be avoided from contacting with acidic, alkaline and other corrosive substances.
5. The state of LDPE should be checked regularly during storage, and any deformation or discoloration should be handled in time.

3. LDPE safety transport specification

1. transport vehicles should have fire prevention, anti-static and other safety measures, and to ensure that the vehicle is in good condition.
2. Severe vibration and collision shall be avoided during transportation to prevent damage or deformation of LDPE.
3. During transportation, the vehicle speed should be kept stable, and sudden braking and other operations should be avoided to reduce the impact on the material.
4. During transportation, LDPE should be placed on a stable pallet or shelf and firmly fixed to prevent accidents such as sliding or dumping.
5. Avoid contact between LDPE and open flames, high temperature objects, etc. during transportation to prevent safety accidents such as fire or explosion.

4. safety management practices for LDPE

1. should establish and improve the safety management system and operating procedures for LDPE, and train relevant personnel.
2. Regular safety inspections should be carried out on storage and transportation sites to discover and deal with potential safety hazards in time.
3. LDPE in and out of the warehouse records should be established to ensure the traceability of materials.
4. Should be equipped with professional safety management personnel, responsible for the safety management of LDPE.

5. emergency treatment measures

1. In case of fire, fire extinguishers, fire extinguishers and other fire fighting equipment shall be used immediately to put out the fire, and the alarm shall be given in time.
2. In case of leakage, measures shall be taken immediately to prevent the leakage from spreading, and special equipment shall be used for cleaning.
3. In case of casualties, first aid shall be given immediately and sent to hospital for treatment.

6. summary

LDPE polyethylene is widely used in the field of chemical production raw materials, but its safe storage and transportation have certain risks. In order to ensure the safe use of LDPE, it is necessary to formulate corresponding specifications and strictly implement them. Through the establishment of a sound safety management system, equipped with professional safety management personnel, regular safety inspections and other measures, we can effectively reduce the safety risks of LDPE in the storage and transportation process, and ensure the safety of people's lives and property.
