oxide rons safely
Packaged in accordance with IGC Specification^ The 5 P, double-walled insulated steel drums provide safe and convenient handling of Ethylene Oxide. T w o valves are located in the head of each drum, When fitted with suitable adapters and couplings, they serve to unload the Ethylene Oxide by displacement with an inert gas. For detailed information on unloading 400-pound drums, write for our Technical Bulletin, "Ethylene Oxide, Safe Handling in Cylinders and Drums/* Ethylene Oxide is also available in 4,000- and 10,000-gal. tank cars or in samples for your preliminary inspection.
