As title
1 Storage and transportation precautions according to MSDS: Store in a cool, well-ventilated warehouse. Keep away from flames and heat sources. The warehouse temperature should not exceed 30°C. Protect from direct sunlight. Keep the container sealed. It should be stored separately from oxidizers. The lighting, ventilation, and other facilities in the storage area should be of explosion-proof type, with switches located outside the warehouse. Equipped with fire-fighting equipment of the appropriate types and in sufficient quantities. The stacking of barrels should not be too dense; space must be left around walls, at the top, between columns, as well as for necessary fire inspection passages. Fire and explosion prevention technical measures must be in place during storage in tanks. The use of mechanical equipment and tools that can generate sparks is prohibited. During filling, attention should be paid to the flow rate (not exceeding 3 m/s), and a grounding device should be in place to prevent static electricity buildup. Handle with care during transportation to prevent damage to the packaging and containers. 2.
For flammable and explosive hazardous materials, the flow rate is restricted; such factors must be taken into account during design, as high line speeds can generate static electricity
Was the MSDS provided by the supplier or found online?
Ask the supplier for it; they must provide this!
1. The greater the flow rate, the greater the amount of static electricity generated; 2. The higher the flow rate, the greater the impact on the pipe fittings. Therefore, the flow rate needs to be controlled.
Prevent the generation of static electricity that could cause accidents.
