What Is Furfuryl Alcohol?

Is an important organic chemical raw material. Mainly used in the production of furfural resin, furan resin, furfuryl alcohol-urethane resin, phenolic resin, etc. It is also used in the preparation of fruit acids, plasticizers, solvents and rocket fuel. In addition, it is also widely used in industrial sectors such as dyes, synthetic fibers, rubber, pesticides and foundry.

I. Health hazards

Invasion: inhalation, ingestion, percutaneous absorption.

Health hazards: This strain is an irritant. High concentrations of continuous inhalation cause cough, shortness of breath, and tightness in the chest. Extremely high concentrations can cause death. Vapors are irritating to the eyes, and liquids can cause eye inflammation and corneal opacity. Skin contact with its liquid causes dryness and irritation of the skin. Oral headaches, nausea, and mouth and stomach irritation.

two,

Gas chromatography (WS / T160-1999, workplace air)

Furfuryl alcohol content in the air: The sample was adsorbed with an adsorption tube, eluted with acetone, and analyzed by gas chromatography (NIOSH method)

Furfuryl alcohol leakage treatment

Evacuate personnel from the leaked contaminated area to a safe area. Unrelated personnel are prohibited from entering the contaminated area and cut off the source of fire. Emergency personnel are recommended to wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing. Do not touch the leak directly, and plug it under safety conditions. Spray water to reduce evaporation. Mix with sand or other non-combustible adsorbent. It is then collected and transported to a waste disposal site for disposal. It can also be washed with a large amount of water, and the diluted washing water is put into the waste water system. If a large amount of leakage, collect and recycle or discard after harmless treatment.

Waste disposal method: by incineration, waste is mixed with flammable solvents and incinerated.

Furfuryl alcohol protection measures

Respiratory protection: Gas masks should be worn when they may be exposed to vapors. Wear self-contained breathing for emergencies or rescue.

Eye protection: Wear safety glasses.

Protective clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing.

Hand protection: Wear chemical-resistant gloves.

Others: Smoking, eating and drinking are not allowed on the job site. After work, wash thoroughly. Store clothes contaminated by poisons separately and wash them before reuse. Pay attention to personal hygiene.

Furfuryl emergency measures

Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing and immediately rinse thoroughly with running water.

Eye contact: Raise the eyelids immediately and rinse thoroughly with plenty of running water.

Inhalation: Quickly leave the scene to fresh air. Keep your airways open. Give oxygen when breathing is difficult. Once breathing stops, begin CPR immediately. Seek medical attention.

Ingestion: When the patient is awake, drink plenty of warm water, induce vomiting, and consult a doctor.

Fire fighting methods: mist water, foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, sand.

Packaging, storage and transportation: iron drum, 230kg, 250kg per barrel. Store in a cool, dry and ventilated place. No smoking. Do not store and transport with strong acids, strong oxidizing chemicals and food.
