Fourth, the main items of storage

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated non-combustible warehouse.Keep away from fire and heat sources.Keep container tightly closed.Moisture and sun protection.Store separately from other items.It should be stored separately from acids, flammables, combustibles, edible chemical raw materials, wet items, etc.Do not mix storage and transportation.When handling, it should be lightly loaded and unloaded to prevent damage to packaging and containers.Pay attention to personal protection during loading and handling operations.

5. Leakage treatment

Evacuate personnel from the leaked contaminated area to a safe area, and prohibit irrelevant personnel from entering the contaminated area. It is recommended that emergency responders wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing.Do not directly touch the spill, do not spray water directly on the spill, and do not let water enter the packaging container.Absorb with sand, shovel into a bucket, send to an open place, and then slowly pour into a large amount of water, and the diluted sewage is put into the waste water system.Scrub the contaminated area with water and ventilate the contaminated area.In case of large spill, recycle.

6. Product quality

The obtained product is a colorless liquid at room temperature, very stable to heat, and completely decomposed at 460°C.The compounding ability is very strong, and it can react with almost all elements and produce flames.Purity ≥99% (purity is based on customer feedback).Cylinder storage is filled according to customer demand.At present, there are no perfect bromine pentafluoride detection and analysis methods and sound national standards in China, and the final products (such as iodine pentafluoride, antimony pentafluoride, etc.) are based on the availability of customers.

7. Product use

Fluorinating agent, rocket fuel, medicine, and veterinary medicine are used as a conversion agent for fluoxin.
