Detergent AR-812 is a non-ionic surfactant primarily composed of fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, with overall high safety. According to safety data provided by Guoli Chemical, its acute toxicity is extremely low (rat oral LD₅₀ > 5000 mg/kg), skin irritation index < 0.5, and eye irritation index is 0, classifying it as a non-irritating substance. The product has a flash point (closed cup) > 150 ℃, is non-flammable, contains no APEO (alkylphenol polyoxyethylene ether), and has a biodegradability ≥ 90% (OECD 301B method), meeting international environmental regulations.
Although the product itself has excellent safety properties, standardized operations are still required in industrial use scenarios. Operators should undergo specialized training and strictly follow operating procedures. It is recommended to use in well-ventilated conditions to avoid aerosol formation and inhalation. During operations, chemical safety goggles, nitrile or chloroprene rubber protective gloves, and appropriate protective clothing should be worn to avoid long-term or repeated skin contact which may cause degreasing and dryness. Workplaces should be equipped with safety showers and eyewash stations. After operations, thoroughly wash hands and exposed skin. Eating, drinking, and smoking are prohibited during work.
For storage, the product should be kept in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse, away from fire and heat sources. The recommended storage temperature is 5 ℃ to 40 ℃, avoiding direct sunlight. Containers should be kept tightly closed and stored separately from strong acids and strong oxidizing agents; do not store together. The storage area should be equipped with spill containment and emergency response equipment.
| Exposure Route | Treatment Measures |
|---|---|
| Skin Contact | Immediately remove contaminated clothing and rinse thoroughly with soap and plenty of running water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if discomfort occurs. |
| Eye Contact | Immediately lift eyelids and rinse thoroughly with plenty of water or saline for at least 15 minutes. If irritation or pain persists, seek medical attention. |
| Inhalation | Quickly move to fresh air and maintain an open airway. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen; if breathing stops, immediately perform artificial respiration and seek emergency medical help. |
| Ingestion | Rinse mouth with water, do not induce vomiting, immediately call a poison control center or seek medical attention, and show the product container or label. |
Detergent AR-812 itself is not flammable, but may decompose under fire conditions to produce irritating smoke. For firefighting, use water mist, foam, dry powder, or carbon dioxide extinguishing agents depending on surrounding fire sources; do not use straight water streams. Firefighters must wear self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
