What is the test method for the prevalence of organic peroxides?
Organic peroxides are known to be thermally unstable substances or mixtures capable of undergoing self-accelerating thermal decomposition. If exposed to acids, alkalis, reducing agents, or flammable materials, or exposed to high temperature, impact, friction, and other environments, it will rapidly decompose, causing fires and explosions. Therefore, we must be very careful when storing and using organic peroxides. Next, Jiangsu Suoteng New Material Technology Co., Ltd. will tell you how to store organic peroxides.
We should store organic peroxides in cool, clean, dry, and ventilated warehouses. We must remember to stay away from all sources of fire and heat, avoid direct sunlight, and use explosion-proof lighting. In addition, the warehouse storing organic peroxides must be waterproof and prevent mixing with acids, flammable substances, organic substances, reducing agents, pyrophoric substances, and moist substances.
Secondly, different types of oxidants should be stored and transported in appropriate warehouses depending on the nature, quality, and fire-extinguishing method of the organic peroxide. For example, organic peroxides cannot be stored and transported together with inorganic oxidants, and nitrites, chlorites, and hypochlorites cannot be stored and transported together with other oxidants.
During the storage and transportation of organic peroxides, we must handle them carefully to avoid the possibility of peroxide falling off, because impact and friction may cause organic peroxides to explode. If an accidental fire or explosion occurs, we must extinguish the fire with water or foam and do our to control the fire to prevent other peroxides from exploding. If organic peroxides are accidentally spilled during transportation, we should use inert substances as absorbents to absorb them, and then clean the residue with plenty of water.
