I. Is silicone a dangerous good
Silicone is a dangerous good. According to the dangerous goods classification system of the United Nations, silicone belongs to Class 3 flammable liquids. Organosilicon molecules contain a large number of carbon-silicon bonds and are prone to spontaneous combustion when exposed to air. Moreover, some derivatives of silicone may cause irritation to the skin and eyes, and may even be toxic to the human body, having certain effects on the respiratory system, digestive system and central nervous system, etc. Although silicone is somewhat toxic, it is safe to use under normal circumstances. It is important to abide by relevant safety regulations and take appropriate safety measures.
Ii. What are the contraindications for the use of silicone
Silicone may burn in high-temperature environments. Therefore, silicone products should be stored in cool, dry and well-ventilated places. They should be kept away from high temperatures or fire sources to prevent accidents such as explosions and fires.
2. During the use of silicone, protective equipment such as gloves and masks should be worn properly to avoid direct contact with the skin and inhalation of silicone gas.
3. Silicone should not be mixed with strong oxidants, ammonia water or other incompatible substances, as the mixture may cause violent reactions.
4. The waste liquid from silicone treatment should not be directly discharged into rivers, lakes and other water bodies, nor should the waste from silicone treatment be directly discarded into the natural environment to avoid causing serious pollution and harm to the ecological environment. Proper handling should be carried out in accordance with relevant regulations.
