Regulatory & Compliance
- Chemical Inventories
- Clearances
- TOXIMUL CA series surfactants are approved for use as inert ingredients under U.S. EPA 40 CFR 180.920.
- All components of the TOXIMUL CA series are listed in the following countries; the registration number for the active ingredient is included in parentheses: United States (TSCA 61791-14-8), New Zealand (NZIoC 61791-14-8), Australia (AICS 61791-14-8), Canada (DSL 61791-14-8), China (IECSC 61791-14-8), Japan (ENCS 7-60), Korea (ECL Serial No. KE-01125), and Philippines (PICCS 61791-14-8).
Packaging & Availability
- Standard Packaging
TOXIMUL CA-2 is available in drums (400 lb, 181 kg) and in bulk quantities.
Storage & Handling
- Storage & Handling
- Normal safety precautions (i.e gloves and safety goggles) should be employed when handling TOXIMUL CA surfactants. Contact with the eyes and prolonged contact with the skin should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after handling materials.
- Bulk Storage Information: Stainless steel and glass fiber-reinforced polyester tanks are recommended. Many oven-cured phenolic and epoxy/phenolic linings may also be used. Elevated storage temperature may be desirable to maintain ease of pumping. Temperatures up to 130°F (54°C) can be maintained for long periods of time without degradation of the product.
- TOXIMUL CA surfactants which have been stored in drums at temperatures below 40°F (4°C) may thicken or solidify. TOXIMUL CA-2 is a viscous liquid below 40°F (5°C). The surfactants may be fluidized by warming with a drum heater or in a steam room. Drums should be vented prior to heating to avoid excessive pressure build up. Product temperatures over 130°F (54°C) are not recommended.
