Safety & Health
- Toxicity Information
This product is regarded as non-hazardous. However, it is considered to possess low acute oral and skin penetration. It should not be used in products for internal use.
Storage & Handling
- Storage, Stability and Handling Information
- 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.
- T-Det “N” nonionic surfactants are stable non-corrosive products in an anhydrous state.
- They can be stored in plain steel tanks with piping, valves, and pumps of the same metal.
- Aqueous solutions of T-Det “N” surfactants must be stored in stainless steel or plastic lined tanks.
- The nonylphenol-ethylene oxide adducts are slightly hydroscopic. Where necessary, guard against atmospheric moisture pick-up, an inert gas blanket may be used.
