Read： 458 Time：19months ago Source：Transform the World with Simplicity

Ethylcyclohexane is a common chemical raw material
widely used in paint, coating, printing ink and other fields. However, ethylcyclohexane has certain toxicity and flammability, so it is necessary to strictly comply with relevant regulations during storage and transportation to ensure safety. This paper will introduce the specification of safe storage and transportation of ethylcyclohexane.

1. the hazardous properties of ethylcyclohexane

ethylcyclohexane is a colorless and transparent liquid with a special odor. It is a flammable, volatile organic compound that may cause combustion or explosion when exposed to open flame, high heat or oxidant. In addition, ethylcyclohexane also has a certain toxicity, long-term exposure or inhalation of its vapor may cause damage to the human nervous system, respiratory system and digestive system.

2. Ethylcyclohexane safe storage specification

1. The storage place should choose a dry, ventilated and cool place, away from open flames, heat sources and oxidants.
2. The storage container must be well sealed to prevent volatilization and leakage of ethylcyclohexane.
3. The storage area shall be equipped with corresponding fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment.
4. Check and maintain the storage container regularly to ensure that it is intact.

3. Ethylcyclohexane safety transport specification

1. transport vehicles should comply with the relevant standards, with fire, explosion, anti-static and other safety facilities.
2. During transportation, it should be stable to avoid violent vibration, collision and friction.
3. Transport personnel shall be professionally trained to understand the hazardous characteristics of ethylcyclohexane and emergency treatment measures.
4. Relevant laws and regulations and road traffic rules shall be observed during transportation.

4. ethyl cyclohexane leakage emergency treatment measures

1. if ethyl cyclohexane leakage occurs, should immediately cut off the leakage source, and take measures to prevent the leakage spread.
2. For a small amount of leakage, it can be recycled after mixing with sand, dry lime or soda ash.
3. For a large number of leaks, embankments or pits should be built and covered with foam to reduce steam disasters. Transfer to the tank or special collector with explosion-proof pump, recycle or transport to the waste treatment site for disposal.

5. conclusion

ethylcyclohexane as a common chemical production raw material, in the process of storage and transportation need to strictly abide by the relevant norms to ensure safety. By understanding the hazardous characteristics of ethylcyclohexane and taking appropriate safe storage and transportation measures, the risk of accidents can be reduced and the safety of personnel and the environment can be guaranteed.
