What are the storage conditions of alkali-resistant penetrant OEP-70?

Alkali-resistant penetrant OEP-70 should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment, with temperature controlled between 5～40℃, keep the container sealed, away from heat sources, ignition sources, and incompatible substances.

Detailed Description

Alkali-resistant penetrant OEP-70 (isooctyl alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate) is an anionic surfactant, appearing as a colorless to slightly yellow transparent viscous liquid. To ensure the stability of product performance and safety in use, storage is crucial. This product should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse, away from heat sources, ignition sources, and incompatible substances such as strong oxidizers, strong acids, and strong bases to avoid chemical reactions or performance degradation.

During storage, the container must always be kept sealed to prevent moisture absorption or external contamination. Special attention should be paid that this product may freeze under low temperature conditions, causing product stratification and affecting its performance. Therefore, the storage temperature should be strictly controlled within the range of 5～40℃, avoiding freezing environments. Additionally, the warehouse should be kept away from food, beverages, and animal feed to prevent accidental ingestion risks.

Although OEP-70 itself is not a flammable substance, it may produce harmful gases when heated or exposed to open flames, so fire prevention measures should not be ignored. It is recommended to equip the storage area with appropriate fire-fighting equipment, such as dry powder fire extinguishers or carbon dioxide fire extinguishers, to deal with emergencies.

Summary of Storage Conditions

Notes

• Avoid storage temperature below 5℃; freezing may cause product stratification, affecting penetration and alkali resistance.
• For large storage tanks or long-term storage, it is recommended to regularly check container seal integrity and product appearance, and handle any abnormalities promptly.
• The storage area should be equipped with appropriate fire-fighting equipment (such as water mist, dry powder, carbon dioxide fire extinguishers) for emergency use.
• Operators entering the storage area are advised to wear appropriate personal protective equipment to avoid direct skin and eye contact with the product.
• The above storage conditions are derived from the product safety technical documentation. For details, please refer to the official Safety Data Sheet (SDS) provided by the supplier.
