Cloud Point Improvers

Fuel Lubricity Improver Small adjustments are required of only 2 degree Celsius lower
Category

Lower the freezing point and stop problems caused by the diesel freezing  wax solid in lines. The most important role of RXSOL additives is restrict crystalization of wax at cloud point of fuel .

In general at lower temperature paraffin content of fuel  started to crystallize and form tiny lumps of crystals which prohibit flow rate, Good emulsification through RXSOL-41-8977-025 restrict crystallization process in fuel tank.

Application

 

The Cloud Point of a gasoil is the temperature at which the first paraffin-precipitation can be observed. In order to lower the Cloud Point of a gasoil normally a blend with kerosine (containing no paraffins) is made to comply with the required characteristics. As sometimes very small adjustments are required of only 2 degree Celsius lower, we can advise the use of a Cloud-Point-Improver.

 

Dose

Cold flow improver mixed properly in fuel to dissolved wax present. It should be added to a tank before the fuel is put in so that mixing takes place. Pouring it in the top of a tank in which the wax has dropped out of the diesel is a waste of time. 

Mixing Condition :::  Must avoid mixing of RXSOL-41-8977-025 at cloud point of fuel.  Mixing suitable condition is atleast 5 to 10 °C above cloud point of FUEL.

Eye Contact     If this product comes in contact with eyes:
Wash out immediately with water.
If irritation continues, seek medical attention.
Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.
Skin Contact

If skin contact occurs:
Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
Seek medical attention in event of irritation.

Inhalation If fumes, aerosols or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
Other measures are usually unnecessary.
Ingestion Immediately give a glass of water.
First aid is not generally required. If in doubt, contact a Poisons Information Centre or a doctor.
If spontaneous vomiting appears imminent or occurs, hold patient's head down, lower than their hips to help avoid possible
aspiration of vomitus.

  

NOTE TO PHYSICIANS Treat by observation and supportive measures as indicated by the patients condition.
IF SWALLOWED Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting (P301+P330+P331). Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician (P310). Give water or milk to drink. Preferably with active carbon.
IF ON SKIN Wash with plenty of soap and water (P302+P352). Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse (P362).
IF IN EYES Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing (P305+P351+P338). If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention (P337+P313).
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed In cases of severe exposure, headache may develop In cases of severe exposure, nausea/vomiting may develop Prolonged skin contact will result in defatting of the skin, leading to irritation, and in some cases, dermatitis Causes eye irritation (H320). The ingestion of significant quantities may cause chemical oedema
Indication of any immediate medical attention No information available Treat symptomatically

 

Extinguishing media In case of fire: use carbon dioxide or dry agent for extinction (P370+P378)
In case of fire: use dry powder/BCF for extinction (P370+P378)
In case of fire: use dry sand or dry salt for extinction (P370+P378)
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture May form explosive mixtures with air In confined spaces, sewers, etc., the vapours may collect to form explosive mixtures with air Vapours are heavier than air and may travel considerable distances to a source of ignition and flashback In case of fire: (P370) .Carbon dioxide may be formed. Carbon oxides may be formed
Advice for firefighters In the event of an adjacent fire, cool containers with water spray . Prevent run off water from entering drains if possible Wear chemical protection suit and positive-pressure breathing apparatus

 

 

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Wear protective clothing as per section 8.

Environmental precautions Avoid scattering in the environment
Do not allow to enter public sewers and watercourses.
Methods for Containment and Clean Up Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. – No smoking (P210).
Shut off all ignition sources Absorb spillage in earth or sand Absorb spillage in dry sand Absorb spillage in inert material and shovel up Place in sealable container Seal containers and label them Remove contaminated material to safe location for subsequent disposalVentilate the area and wash spill site after material pick-up is complete
Reference to other sections See Section 13.

 

Precautions for safe handling                               Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray (P261). Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing (P262). Ensure adequate ventilation Eyewash bottles should be available Keep away from sources of ignition - No Smoking (S16) Use personal protective equipment as required (P281). Wash contaminated clothing before reuse (P363). Wash hands and working surfaces thoroughly after handling (P264).

Engineering controls Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Well-designed
engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and will typically be independent of worker interactions to provide this high level of protection. The basic types of engineering controls are: Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.
Eye and face protection Safety glasses with side shields. Chemical goggles.Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants.
Skin protection See Hand protection below
Hands/feet protection            Wear chemical protective gloves, e.g. PVC.
Wear safety footwear or safety gumboots, e.g. Rubber
The selection of suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality which vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Where the chemical is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior to the application. The exact break through time for substances has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves and.has to be observed when making a final choice.
Body protection See Other protection below
Other protection Overalls. P.V.C. apron.
