Storage & Handling
- Storage, Stability and Handling Information
- T-Det® “O” nonionic surfactants are stable non-corrosive products in their anhydrous state.
- They can be stored in plain steel tanks with piping, valves, and pumps of the same metal.
- Aqueous solutions of T-Det® “O” surfactants must be stored in stainless steel or plastic lined tanks.
- The octyl phenol-ethylene oxide adducts are slightly hydroscopic.
- Where necessary, guard against atmospheric moisture pick-up, an inert gas blanket may be used.
- It should not be mixed with concentrated oxidizing or reducing agents since the mixture of these compounds with organic compounds could form a potentially explosive mixture.
