Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100)

In order to prevent polymerization Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) must always be stored under air, and never under inert gases. The presence of oxygen is required for the stabilizer to function effectively. Freezing of Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) results in the segregation of monomer and inhibitor. In addition, it is especially important to replenish dissolved oxygen after melting the drummed material prior to use. Replenishment dissolved oxygen and mixing of MEHQ into the monomer can be done using a palette shaker or a drum tumbler. The melting process requires temperatures of 20 °C or higher but at a maximum of 35 °C as the heating temperature. Warming the product in a room of 20 – 25 °C over several days is the preferred option. As an alternative, if faster melting is required heating cabinets using hot water or hot oil are the preferred apparatus for the thawing process of Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) since this avoids hot spots. Local hot spots of more than 35 °C may result in premature aging of the material. Product temperatures of more than 45 °C may result in a runaway polymerization of the monomer. During storage as a molten liquid, it is advisable to replenish the dissolved oxygen content on a weekly basis. Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) has to contain a stabilizer and the storage temperature must not exceed 20 °C to prevent premature quality degradation. If the above-mentioned conditions are met a storage stability Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) of 6 months can be expected upon delivery.

A Safety Data Sheet has been compiled for Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) that contains up-to-date information on questions relevant to safety. Flash-point over 90 °C. Ignition temperature 404 °C. When working with Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100), the sanitary rules for organizing technological processes and hygienic requirements for production equipment must be strictly observed. All types of work with Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) should be carried out in rooms equipped with general supply and exhaust ventilation. It is not allowed to carry out work in these rooms using an open fire. Those working with Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) must be provided with special clothing and personal protective equipment in accordance with GOST 12.4.034. In the event of a fire, it is necessary to use fire extinguishers OP-5, OVP-100 felt, sand, asbestos cloth. Behenyl Polyethyleneglycol Methacrylate 1100 (BEPEGMA 1100) poured onto solid ground should be covered with sand.
