Acrolein (CAS 107-02-8), while an incredibly useful chemical intermediate, is also a substance that requires diligent attention to safety protocols due to its inherent properties. As a leading manufacturer and supplier, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. places a strong emphasis on providing not only high-quality Acrolein but also crucial information regarding its safe handling and storage. Understanding these aspects is vital for any procurement manager or R&D scientist working with this compound. Key to handling Acrolein safely is recognizing its classification. It is a highly flammable liquid and vapor, with a low flash point of -26°C. This means it can easily ignite in the presence of an ignition source, such as sparks or open flames. Therefore, it must be stored and handled in well-ventilated areas, away from heat and ignition sources. Containers should be kept tightly closed to prevent vapor release. Furthermore, Acrolein is classified as a poisonous material. It is a strong irritant to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Exposure can lead to severe health risks. For this reason, it is imperative that appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) is used at all times when handling Acrolein. This includes chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles or face shields, and respiratory protection, especially in areas where vapor concentrations might be high. Proper ventilation systems, such as fume hoods, are essential in laboratory and production settings. From a chemical stability perspective, Acrolein is known to polymerize readily, especially when exposed to light or heat. To maintain its stability and prevent polymerization, stabilizers like hydroquinone are often added (typically around 0.1% to 0.35%). Storage at recommended temperatures, usually between 2-8°C, is crucial to preserve its quality and prevent degradation. For procurement purposes, ensuring you receive comprehensive safety data (MSDS) and technical data (TDS) from your supplier is non-negotiable. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides these documents to support safe usage. When you purchase Acrolein from us, you are not just acquiring a chemical; you are engaging with a supplier committed to responsible chemical management.
