Ethylene Oxide 99.9% purity C2H4O Industrial Gas

Ethylene oxide is an organic compound with the chemical formula C2H4O, which is a toxic carcinogen and was previously used to make fungicides. Ethylene oxide is flammable and explosive, and is not easy to transport over long distances, so it has strong regional characteristics. It is widely used in washing, pharmaceutical, printing and dyeing industries. It can be used as a starting agent for cleaning agents in chemical related industries.

Ethylene oxide is non-toxic odorless, low density, low boiling point of liquid organic matter, because it is often used as a solvent in organic synthesis, is an important organic synthesis raw material. Ethylene oxide can be used in the manufacture of colorants, dyes, polyvinyl chloride, polyurethane, polyamide, composite materials, etc. It can also be used as a solvent for agricultural pesticides, algaecides, plant growth regulators, and can also be used to make clothing leather. At the same time, ethylene oxide can also be used as freezers and refrigerants, or as a cleaning solvent for components in the electronics and semiconductor industries. In the pharmaceutical industry, ethylene oxide can also be used in the preparation of medicines, as an extraction solvent, in plant extraction technologies, and as a solvent in the treatment of skin diseases and cancers as an antiallergic and anti-inflammatory agent. In addition, ethylene oxide can also be used as a cryogenic freezing pretreatment, which is widely used in food. Pharmaceutical, biological and other industries.

Safety Instructions

Main physical and chemical hazards: This product is flammable, toxic, carcinogenic, irritating and sensitizing.
GHS Hazard category: Flammable gases, chemically unstable gases, Category A; Pressurized gas; Acute toxicity - inhalation, category 3*; Skin corrosion/irritation, Category 2; Severe eye injury/eye irritation, Category 2: Germline mutagenicity, Category 1B: carcinogenicity, Category 1A; Specific target organ toxicity - one exposure, category 3; Hazards to the aquatic environment - acute hazards, category 3
Warning word: Danger
Danger information: Explosive reactions may occur even in the absence of air: gases under pressure, if heated, can explode; Cause skin irritation; Can cause genetic defects; Carcinogenic; May cause respiratory irritation, may cause drowsiness or dizziness; Cause severe eye irritation; Toxic by inhalation; Harmful to aquatic organisms;
Precautions: Keep away from heat sources, sparks, open flames and hot surfaces. Work with tools that do not produce sparks. Keep container airtight. Take ESD measures. Ground and connect containers or devices. Use explosion-proof appliances, ventilation, lighting and other equipment. Use personal protective equipment and wear antistatic work clothes as required. No smoking, eating and drinking in the workplace. Avoid high concentration inhalation. Light loading and unloading during handling to prevent cylinder and accessories damage.
Route of invasion: inhalation
Health hazard: It is a central nervous depressant, irritant and protoplasmic poison. Acute poisoning: patients have intense throbbing headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, tears, coughing, chest tightness, dyspnea; Heavy body muscle fibrillation, speech disorders ataxia, sweating, confusion, resulting in coma. Myocardial damage and abnormal liver function were also seen. After rescue and recovery, there may be temporary insanity, delayed functional aphonia or central hemiplegia. Skin contact quickly redness and swelling, foaming after a few hours, repeated contact can sensitize. Liquid splashing into the eyes can cause corneal burns. Chronic effects: Long-term exposure to small amounts can be seen in neurasthenic syndrome and autonomic dysfunction.
Emergency summary: such as leakage: quickly evacuate the contaminated area to the upper wind, and isolation, strictly restrict access. Cut off the fire. Emergency personnel are advised to wear self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus and fire protective clothing. Cut off the source of leakage as much as possible. Reasonable ventilation to accelerate diffusion. Dilute and dissolve in spray water. Build embankments or dig pits to contain large amounts of waste water. If possible, send the leaking gas to the open area with the exhaust fan or install the appropriate nozzle to burn off. If the leaking gas catches fire: Do not extinguish the fire unless the source of the leak can be safely cut off. If there is no danger, eliminate all sources of ignition. In case of fire, spray water to cool the container and move it from the fire to an open area if possible. In case of fire, fog water, foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder extinguishing agent is used to extinguish the fire. If inhaled: quickly remove from the scene to fresh air. Keep your airway clear. If breathing is difficult, give transfusion. If breathing stops, give artificial respiration immediately. Seek medical attention.
Environmental hazard: harmful to the environment.
