Regulatory & Compliance
- Certifications & Compliance
- Chemical Inventories
- Clearances
- STEPOSOL ROE-W is approved for use under EPA 40 CFR 180.910, pre- and post-harvest applications.
- All components of STEPOSOL ROE-W are listed in the following countries: United States (TSCA 67762-38-3), Europe (EINECS 267- 015-4), Canada (DSL 67762-38-3), Korea (ECL Serial No. KE-14358), China (IECSC 67762-38-3), Japan (ENCS Number 7-670), Philippines (PICCS 67762-38-3), and Australia (AICS 67762-38- 3).
- Per the California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) Consumer Product Rule, OTC Model Rule and Federal VOC Standards, STEPOSOL ROE-W is exempt from VOC limit requirements because it is a LVP-VOC (low vapor pressure VOC). All regulations define an LVP-VOC as a compound or mixture which meets one of the following criteria:
- The compound has a vapor pressure of less than 0.1 mm Hg at 20°C.
- The compound has more than 12 carbon atoms, or a mixture compromised solely of compounds with more than 12 carbon atoms, and the vapor pressure is unknown or
- The compound has a boiling point greater than 216°C.
Safety & Health
- Toxicity
STEPOSOL ROE-W has a low toxicity (oral LD50 >5000 mg/kg) and is not a skin and eye irritant.

Storage & Handling
- Storage & Handling
Normal safety precautions (i.e. gloves and safety goggles) should be employed when handling STEPOSOL ROE-W. Contact with eyes and prolonged contact with skin should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after handling materials. Product temperatures over 130°F (54°C) are not recommended. Being derived from canola oil, STEPOSOL ROE-W contains polyunsaturated fatty acid methyl esters that can spontaneously combust. Oily rags, presenting a large surface area for air contact, should be washed out or stored where there can be no fire hazard.
Recommended Drum Storage
STEPOSOL ROE-W should be stored in sealed containers at a temperature of 50-110°F. Storage under nitrogen will prevent degradation of the product over time.
Recommended Bulk Storage
STEPOSOL ROE-W can be stored in vessels of carbon steel; however 316 or 304 stainless steel is preferred. Tanks should be closed with venting through a gooseneck vent. STEPOSOL ROE-W should be stored between 50-110°F. External steam panel coils can be used if heating is required. Rubber hoses are not recommended for extended use. Storage under nitrogen will prevent degradation of the product over time.
