[Supply and sales of glyceryl octanoate] Safety matters related to explosion, storage and transportation of glyceryl octanoate

Glyceryl octanoate, molecular formula C21H40O5, relative molecular mass: 372.54, It is made from coconut oil, palm kernel oil, Litsea cubeba oil and other oils and fats as raw materials. After hydrolysis, fractionation and cutting, caprylic acid, capric acid and glycerol are esterified, and then deacidified, dehydrated and decolorized.

Those who supply glyceryl octanoate remind you to pay attention to the explosive characteristics of glyceryl octanoate and safety matters related to storage and transportation:

1. Combustion and explosion characteristics and fire protection

Flash point: 240℃

Explosion lower limit: No data

Ignition temperature: 433

Hazardous characteristics: When exposed to high heat or open flame and then in contact with oxidants, it may cause a burning hazard.

Fire-fighting method: Move the container from the fire scene to an open area as much as possible. Spray water to keep the fire container cool until the fire is extinguished. Containers in a fire scene must be evacuated immediately if they change color or if there is sound from the safety pressure relief device. Fire extinguishing media: mist water, foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, sand.

2. Emergency leakage treatment

After a leak occurs, since this product has no irritation or toxicity, you only need to rinse the ground with clean water. , and then discharge the sewage into the sewage treatment tank.

3. Storage and transportation precautions

Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Protect from direct sunlight. Keep container tightly sealed. should be kept away from oxidizer, do not store together. Equipped with the appropriate variety and quantity of fire equipment. The storage area should be equipped with leakage emergency response equipment and suitable containment materials.
