When working with any chemical compound, understanding its safety profile and implementing proper handling procedures is paramount. 1-Octen-3-ol (CAS 3391-86-4), while widely used and valuable in the flavor, fragrance, and agricultural industries, requires careful attention to safety. As a supplier committed to responsible chemical distribution, we provide essential information for industrial users who buy 1-octen-3-ol.

1-Octen-3-ol is classified as a flammable liquid and can cause skin irritation and potentially allergic skin reactions. It is also harmful if swallowed. Therefore, appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential when handling this compound. This includes chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles or a face shield, and protective clothing to prevent skin contact.

In industrial settings, good ventilation is crucial when working with 1-octen-3-ol. Operations should ideally be conducted in well-ventilated areas or under fume hoods to minimize inhalation exposure. When storing the compound, it should be kept in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from sources of ignition and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.

The flammability of 1-octen-3-ol necessitates strict adherence to fire safety protocols. Keep it away from open flames, sparks, and hot surfaces. In case of fire, suitable extinguishing media include dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or foam. Water spray may be ineffective but can be used to cool containers exposed to fire.

Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) or Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are the primary source of detailed safety information for any chemical. We strongly recommend that all personnel involved in handling 1-octen-3-ol review the SDS provided by the supplier. It contains comprehensive information on hazards, first-aid measures, firefighting procedures, accidental release measures, and toxicological data.
