Tristyrylphenol polyoxyethylene ether 600-1 is a nonionic surfactant with high safety. According to GB\/T 16483 standard, this product does not belong to physical hazards, health hazards, or environmental hazard categories. The oral LD50 in rats is greater than 5000 mg\/kg, indicating low toxicity; it is non-irritating to rabbit skin (primary irritation index 0.0), and the guinea pig skin sensitization test result is negative, with no sensitizing potential. However, regarding eye contact, this product causes slight irritation to rabbit eyes, with no corneal opacity, iritis, or other symptoms observed within 24 hours, and conjunctival redness and swelling completely subsiding within 48 hours. Therefore, the key protective measure during handling is eye protection.
In routine operations, workers should wear conventional chemical-resistant gloves and protective goggles. No special respiratory protection is required, but long-sleeved work clothing is recommended to avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact. The work area should be well-ventilated, and procedures such as material transfer or splitting should minimize aerosol generation or splashing. Eating and smoking are prohibited during work. After work, before eating, and before using the toilet, hands and exposed skin should be thoroughly washed.
From an environmental perspective, this product is environmentally friendly.
