Compressed gases flammable

Storage and Shipment. VDF or HFC-1132a is stored and shipped in gas cylinders or high pressure tube trailers without polymerization inhibitor and is placarded as flammable compressed gas. Terpenes or quinones can be added to inhibit polymerization. Elf Atochem North America, Inc. and Ausimont USA, Inc. supply VDE in the United States other producers are in Japan and Europe. [Pg.385]

Butadiene is primarily shipped in pressurized containers via railroads or tankers. U.S. shipments of butadiene, which is classified as a flammable compressed gas, are regulated by the Department of Transportation (254). Most other countries have adopted their own regulations (30). Other information on the handling of butadiene is also available (255). As a result of the extensive emphasis on proper and timely responses to chemical spills, a comprehensive handbook from the National Fire Protection Association is available (256). [Pg.349]

DOT classifies butene-1 as a flammable compressed gas, hexene, and octene as flammable liquids, and decene-1 as a combustible liquid. All four must carry required shipping placards. The remaining alpha olefins are not regulated by the DOT. [Pg.311]

This was a PVC plant located in an industrial area that had operated for about nine years. Vinyl chloride, a very flammable compressed gas, was received on the site by rail cars and tank trucks and stored in seven large bullet tanks. Five of the bullet tanks were 10 ft. in diameter and 100 ft. long. They were spaced about 10 ft. apart. The two smaller tanks were about two-thirds the volume of size of the others. [Pg.102]

Liquid hydrogen sulfide has been classified as a flammable compressed gas for shipment in both tank trucks and tank cars by governmental authorities both in the United States and Canada. Department of Transportation special permits authorize use of type 105A-600W tank cars filled to a maximum density of 68%. With a capacity of 13,500 gal, these insulated tank cars will hold about 30 short tons net weight of liquid hydrogen sulfide. [Pg.215]
