To store ethyl isobutyrate CAS 97-62-1 safely and effectively.
1. Store ethyl isobutyrate in a sealed container made of a material that is compatible with organic solvents, such as glass or some type of plastic (e.g., high-density polyethylene). Make sure the container is designed for chemical storage.
2. Please place in a cool, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight, heat sources and open flames. CAS 97-62-1 should be stored in the designated chemical storage area.
3. Ethyl isobutyrate CAS 97-62-1 should be stored below 30°C (86°F). Avoid exposure to high temperatures as this will increase the risk of volatilization and potential hazards.
4. When not in use, ensure that the container remains tightly closed to prevent contamination and evaporation. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling ethyl isobutyrate.
5. Clearly label containers with contents, hazard warnings, and storage dates.
6. Regularly inspect storage areas and containers for signs of leaks, damage or degradation.
7. Have appropriate spill control materials and safety equipment (e.g., fire extinguishers) available in storage areas.
