n-Hexane (CAS 110-54-3) is a highly flammable liquid, usually isolated from crude oil, and has extensive industrial applications as a solvent in adhesive bandage factories and other industries. It is highly toxic, triggering several adverse health effects, i.e., nausea, skin irritation, dizziness, numbness of limbs, CNS depression, vertigo, and respiratory tract irritation to animals and humans. Therefore, this chemical must be handled properly.
How to handle n-Hexane chemical?
Safe handling of n-hexane requires strict adherence to the following guidelines：
Storage: Store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Store it in sealed, explosion-proof containers (e.g. metal drums or IBC totes) and keep it separate from oxidisers, acids and bases.
Personal protective equipment (PPE): Wear chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, a lab coat or protective clothing, and a respirator if ventilation is inadequate, to prevent inhalation and skin contact.
Handling procedures: Avoid spills and splashes. Transfer in well-ventilated areas using grounded equipment to prevent static electricity buildup. Do not smoke or use open flames near n-hexane.
Spill response: If a spill occurs, evacuate the area, eliminate ignition sources and contain the spill using absorbent materials (e.g. sand or clay). Dispose of contaminated materials according to local environmental regulations.
Waste disposal: Do not discharge into waterways or sewers. Dispose of n-hexane waste via licensed hazardous waste disposal companies, in accordance with local and national legislation.
