Acrylonitrile (CAS 107-13-1) is a vital industrial chemical, but its handling requires strict adherence to safety protocols due to its inherent properties. As a responsible manufacturer and supplier, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is committed to providing clear guidance on the safe storage, handling, and emergency response procedures for Acrylonitrile. Understanding these precautions is paramount for all personnel involved in its use.

Acrylonitrile is a highly flammable liquid and vapor. Its flash point is low, meaning it can easily ignite in the presence of an ignition source. Therefore, it must be stored in a well-ventilated area, away from heat, sparks, open flames, and other ignition sources. Storage containers should be tightly closed and grounded to prevent static electricity buildup. Segregation from incompatible materials, such as strong oxidizers, acids, bases, and organic materials, is crucial to prevent hazardous reactions. When purchasing Acrylonitrile from us, you can trust that it is supplied with appropriate stabilization, but correct storage remains a user's responsibility.

Exposure to Acrylonitrile can pose significant health risks. It is toxic if swallowed, absorbed through the skin, or inhaled. It can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Chronic exposure has been linked to more severe health effects. To mitigate these risks, the use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) is non-negotiable. This includes chemical-resistant gloves (e.g., nitrile or butyl rubber), safety goggles or a face shield, and protective clothing. In areas where vapor concentrations may exceed permissible exposure limits, respiratory protection, such as a NIOSH-approved respirator with appropriate cartridges, is mandatory. Always ensure adequate ventilation in work areas.

In the event of a spill or leak, prompt and decisive action is required. Small spills can often be absorbed with inert materials like sand or vermiculite, which are then collected in a suitable container for disposal. For larger spills, containment measures should be implemented to prevent spread into drains or waterways. Emergency personnel should be notified immediately. All waste materials contaminated with Acrylonitrile must be disposed of in accordance with local, regional, and national regulations. As a responsible chemical supplier, we can provide information on safe disposal practices.

First aid measures are critical in case of exposure. If Acrylonitrile comes into contact with eyes, flush immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, removing contact lenses if present. For skin contact, immediately wash with soap and plenty of water, and remove contaminated clothing. If inhaled, move the affected person to fresh air and seek medical attention. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting and seek immediate medical attention. It is essential for all personnel working with Acrylonitrile to be trained in these emergency procedures and to have access to Safety Data Sheets (SDS) which provide detailed information.

At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we are dedicated to promoting safe chemical practices. We encourage all our customers to thoroughly review the SDS for Acrylonitrile and implement robust safety protocols in their facilities. By prioritizing safety, we can collectively ensure the responsible use of this essential chemical in manufacturing and research worldwide. If you are looking to buy Acrylonitrile, our commitment extends beyond product delivery to providing comprehensive safety information.
