Operation and Storage
1、Airtight operation, full sealing. Operators must be specially trained and strictly follow the operating rules. It is recommended that operators wear filter type gas mask (half mask), safety protective glasses, anti-static work clothes, and rubber oil resistant gloves. Stay away from fire and heat sources. Smoking is strictly prohibited in the workplace. Use explosion-proof ventilation systems and equipment to prevent steam leakage into the workplace air and avoid contact with oxidants, reducing agents and alkalis. When filling, the flow rate should be controlled, and there is a grounding device to prevent static electricity accumulation. Handling should be carried lightly to prevent damage to packaging and containers. Equipped with the corresponding variety and quantity of fire equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment. An empty container may remain hazardous.
2、This product is highly flammable and has serious fire danger. It belongs to class A fire dangerous substance. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from heat, fire and contraindicated substances. All containers should be placed on the ground. However, stored and recovered acetone often has acidic impurities, which are corrosive to metals.
Store in a cool and well-ventilated special storage room, away from fire and heat source. The storage temperature should not exceed 29℃. Keep the container sealed. It should be stored separately from oxidizing agents, reducing agents and alkalis, and should not be mixed. Explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities are adopted. Prohibit the use of mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to spark. The storage area shall be equipped with leakage emergency treatment equipment and appropriate storage materials.
