The glycol used as isolation fluid for the instruments has leaked, and replacement isolation fluid is being poured in

The flexible tube wasn’t tied properly, and ethylene glycol got on my face; I rinsed it off with plenty of water. Is ethylene glycol toxic? I’m so scared
Hehehe, its toxicity can be extremely high – even worse than that of venomous snakes. You really need to wash your face carefully; just using water isn’t enough. You have to use steel files and sandpaper, along with disinfectant, to scrub it properly. Otherwise, if the toxicity takes effect, your face will be damaged. Your beautiful face will turn into something like a venomous snake’s skin :lol
Gurus, stop making fun of others about such things; the chemical industry is really dangerous.
As long as you don’t take baths in ethylene glycol, there’s not much danger at the inlets and outlets😄
There are no jokes. Brother is saying that little Zen should wash her face carefully. :P, ethylene glycol? Alcohol, right? I guess drinking a pound of it probably won’t kill you, right? .
Gu Xiaochan – what a nice name. . .
I did a search and found that the lethal dose when consumed is 1.6 g/kg; for a person weighing 100 kg, that would be 160 g. So it’s estimated that one can consume at most 3 liang.
It’s not a serious issue, as long as it doesn’t get into the eyes or mouth. Rinse it thoroughly with water; if you experience any discomfort, it’s best to go to the hospital for a check-up
In our chemical industry, all materials that are commonly used are non-toxic or have low toxicity and minimal harm; those that are highly hazardous are not used casually. This applies not only to ethylene glycol but also to other substances as well. There’s no need to worry. It’s recommended to understand the properties of the materials being used next time, including those of instruments and equipment. Only by understanding them can you use them more effectively, right?
