[Glycerin supply and sales] Safety matters related to glycerin

Glycerin, also known as glycerin, is colorless, odorless and sweet. , the appearance is clear and viscous liquid, and it is an organic substance. It can absorb moisture from the air, as well as hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen cyanide and sulfur dioxide. Insoluble in benzene, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, carbon disulfide, petroleum ether and oil. Since glycerin has a wide range of uses and can be used in industry, cosmetics industry, food industry, etc., the daily operation of glycerin

The following suppliers of glycerin will take you to understand the relevant safety matters of glycerin:

Operation precautions:

For closed operations, pay attention to ventilation. Operators must undergo special training and strictly abide by operating procedures. It is recommended that operators wear self-priming filter gas masks (half masks), chemical safety glasses, anti-toxic substance penetration overalls, and rubber gloves. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Smoking is strictly prohibited in the workplace. Use explosion-proof ventilation systems and equipment. Prevent steam from leaking into the workplace air. Avoid contact with oxidants and acids. When handling, load and unload with care to prevent damage to packaging and containers. Equipped with corresponding neutralizing quantities of fire-fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment. Empty containers may be harmful residues.

Storage precautions:

Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. They should be stored separately from oxidants and acids, and remember to store them together. Equipped with corresponding quantities of fire-fighting equipment. The storage area should be equipped with leakage emergency response equipment and suitable containment materials.

Safety risks:

How glycerol is mixed with strong oxidants (such as chromium trichloride, potassium chlorate, potassium permanganate) may explode. In dilute solutions the reaction rate is slower and several oxidation products are produced. When exposed to light or in contact with basic bismuth nitrate or zinc oxide, glycerol turns black.

If there are iron pollutant residues mixed in, the mixture containing phenol, salicylic acid, and danilinic acid will turn black. Glycerol forms a boric acid complex (glyceroboric acid), which is more acidic than boric acid.
