What is the temperature control at which your company stores styrene, in degrees Celsius? Thank you, Styrene Operation Discussion Forum
18 degrees; CEFIC (the Committee of European Chemical Manufacturers) recommends less than 25 degrees. On one hand, styrene should be stored at low temperatures; on the other hand, the inner wall of the storage tank must have an epoxy polyurethane coating. Furthermore, the storage tank should preferably be equipped with oxygenation equipment.
What is the function of an epoxy polyurethane coating? Thank you
Prevent styrene from accumulating on the tank top to form droplets and undergo polymerization.
Is there a polymerization inhibitor in this? TBC
Almost none; TBC is difficult to evaporate
The temperature of the product after cooling is 8°C, and the temperature in the storage tank is kept below 15°C.
The tank temperature is 10°C. Keep TBC at 10-15 ppm; for long-distance transportation, keep it at 20-30 ppm. Coating inside the storage tank.
