2. Pentanedial is commonly used as a crosslinking agent in the production of resins, plastics, and coatings. This property helps improve the mechanical strength and thermal stability of materials.

3. Pentanedial CAS 111-30-8 has antimicrobial properties and is used as a biocide and disinfectant in various applications, including water treatment and sterilization processes.

4. Pentanedial can be used as a preservative in some formulations, particularly in biological and medical applications, to prevent microbial growth.

5. Pentanedial CAS 111-30-8 may also be used in research settings for various chemical reactions and studies involving aldehydes.

To safely and effectively store glutaraldehyde (1,5-glutaraldehyde).

1. Use airtight containers made of suitable materials, such as glass or high-density polyethylene. Make sure the container is clearly labeled with the name of the chemical and any relevant hazard information.

2. Store glutaraldehyde in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture.

3. Maintain storage temperature within the recommended range, typically 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures.

4. Keep glutaraldehyde CAS 111-30-8 away from incompatible substances such as strong oxidants, acids and bases. Also, keep it away from food and drinks.

5. Use secondary controls, such as spill trays, to control any potential spills or leaks.

6. Access to storage areas is restricted to trained personnel only. Ensure appropriate safety equipment (e.g. fire extinguishers and spill kits) is available.

7. Regularly inspect storage areas and containers for signs of leaks, damage or deterioration.
