    Safety & Health

    Safety Information
    • HARCROS T-DET® O6 should not be mixed with concentrated oxidizing or reducing agents since the mixture of these compounds with organic compounds could form a potentially explosive mixture.
    • HARCROS T-DET® O6 is regarded as non-hazardous. However, it is considered to possess low acute oral and skin penetration. It should not be used in products for internal use.
    • HARCROS T-DET® O6 causes eye irritation. Direct contact would likely result in corneal injury which might persist for a week or longer.
    • Permanent damage is not likely to occur. However, if in contact with skin or eyes, flush with excess water and consult your physician.

    Storage & Handling

    Storage and Handling Information
    • HARCROS T-DET® O6 nonionic surfactants are stable non-corrosive products in their anhydrous state. They can be stored in plain steel tanks with piping, valves, and pumps of the same metal.
    • Aqueous solutions of HARCROS T-DET® O6 surfactants must be stored in stainless steel or plastic lined tanks.
    • The octyl phenol-ethylene oxide adducts are slightly hydroscopic. Where necessary, guard against atmospheric moisture pick-up, an inert gas blanket may be used.
