purplish red or brownish amorphous powder, non-toxic, tasteless and glossy. Easy to absorb moisture. d 2. 34, heat to 416 °c for sublimation, and heat to 590 °c at 43kPa for melting. White phosphorus is obtained by condensation after gasification. Insoluble in water and carbon disulfide, ether, ammonia, slightly soluble in ethanol. Stability is better than white phosphorus, stable at room temperature, no phosphorescence, difficult to react with oxygen. Ignition above 200 ℃. It is mainly reductive, and it is a reducing agent when reacting with halogen and sulfur.
The Red phosphorus flame retardant is a non-halogen efficient flame retardant. Because red phosphorus will produce severe dehydration into carbon during combustion, it can effectively prevent combustion, has a very effective flame retardant effect, and can be widely used in rubber and plastic products. Polymer material phosphorus content of 5% that has self-extinguishing effect, much lower than other flame retardants. In theory, red phosphorus flame retardant can be applied to most polymer materials, but because ordinary red phosphorus is easy to absorb moisture and has poor compatibility with polymer materials, it is especially easy to cause spontaneous combustion and cannot be actually used. In order to make it easy for safe storage, transportation and use, there have been colloidal red phosphorus and microencapsulated red phosphorus products, which solve the disadvantages of red phosphorus and have low smoke, high flame retardant efficiency and no dust pollution, many advantages, such as excellent processability, widely used in PET, PC, PBT, PA and other oxygen rich materials flame retardant.
is a Class I flammable solid. Hazard code number: GB 4.1 class 41001. UN No. 4.1 (amorphous); IMDG Code, class 1. Should be stored in a cool, dry warehouse. It is best to store it in a special library. It should be stored Isolation with oxidants and acids, away from heat sources and fire, and not mixed with flammable and explosive materials. During storage and transportation, it should be protected from humidity and hot sun exposure. Handling should be handled with light, strict anti-vibration, friction, to prevent powder scattering, such as found damage leakage, with wet sand mixing and cleaning or wet cloth to remove the leakage of powder. Iron barreled, the inside and outside of the barrel is painted, and the lid must be sealed. lOkg or 50kg net weight per barrel. When the net weight of the package is 50kg, the red phosphorus in the barrel is divided into 10 plastic bags, each with a net weight of 5kg. When the net weight of the package is 10kg, the barrel is lined with plastic bags, and each of the two barrels is packed in a wooden box, and the barrel and the other are open between the barrels and the other to prevent the impact of combustion. There should be a marked "combustible" mark outside the barrel or outside the box. The retention period was 5 months under the specified storage conditions. In case of fire, it can be suppressed by water, sand and all kinds of fire extinguishing. Firemen should wear gas masks. Toxicity and protection: see industrial yellow phosphorus.
