Octadecylamine Polyoxyethylene Ether AC-1812 (CAS No.: 26635-75-6) is relatively stable under normal temperature and pressure conditions. However, to ensure product quality and performance remain unchanged, the following storage specifications must be strictly followed. This product appears as a light yellow to yellow paste or viscous liquid. In high-temperature or high-humidity environments, it may absorb moisture, soften, or undergo changes in properties. Therefore, temperature and humidity control in the storage environment is particularly critical.
In terms of safety, storage, and transportation, this product is managed as a general chemical. It is not classified as a flammable solid, but it can melt and decompose at high temperatures, producing irritating or toxic fumes. Therefore, the warehouse should be kept away from ignition sources, heat sources, and direct sunlight, and equipped with leakage emergency collection devices and appropriate fire-fighting equipment (such as water mist, dry powder, carbon dioxide fire extinguishers, etc.), with regular inspection and maintenance.
Packaging containers must always be kept sealed. After opening and use, they should be immediately resealed to prevent moisture absorption or contamination with impurities. During transportation, prevent damage to the packaging, avoid mixing with strong oxidizers, and handle with care, ensuring stable operation to prevent containers from tipping or breaking.
| Storage Element | Specific Requirement |
|---|---|
| Warehouse Environment | Cool, dry, well-ventilated dedicated warehouse |
| Temperature Control | Below 35°C, avoid drastic temperature fluctuations |
| Light Requirement | Away from direct sunlight, away from ignition sources and heat sources |
| Packaging Seal | Keep containers sealed; immediately reseal after opening to prevent moisture absorption or contamination with impurities |
| Isolation Storage | Strictly separate from oxidizers, acids, alkalis, flammable substances, food, feed, etc. |
| Shelf Life | Two years from the date of production under original, sealed, and the above storage conditions |
| Fire-fighting Equipment | Warehouse should be equipped with leakage emergency collection devices and appropriate fire-fighting equipment, with regular inspection |
| Chemical Identification | Storage area should have clear chemical identification signs |
To ensure optimal performance of the product during use, it is recommended to follow the "first-in, first-out" principle, using earlier batches preferentially within the shelf life. After each use, promptly seal the container to avoid prolonged exposure to air and moisture absorption. If the product exhibits abnormal appearance or fluidity after long-term storage, it is recommended to conduct small-scale tests before batch use.
