Storage & Shipping

Storage Conditions

Keep tightly closed in a cool, dry, ventilated place away from strong oxidizers, heat, sparks and flames. Minimize prolonged air exposure; use an inert atmosphere where required by the handling procedure.

Packaging Integrity

Inspect drum seals, closures and liquid containment before unloading. Retain lot labels and prevent moisture or foreign-material entry; reseal promptly after dispensing.

Packaging

25 kg drums

Handling & Protection

Use controlled liquid transfer and suitable local ventilation. Wear compatible chemical-resistant gloves, splash goggles and work clothing. Avoid mist, vapour, ingestion and skin contact; maintain eyewash access.

What Is Benzyl Alcohol?

Benzyl alcohol, CAS 100-51-6, is an aromatic alcohol also known as benzenemethanol. It is supplied as a colourless liquid with a faint aromatic, fruity odour. Its molecular formula is C7H8O and molecular weight is 108.14 g/mol.

The TDS specifies assay ≥98.0%, relative density 1.042–1.047 at 25/25°C and refractive index 1.536–1.541 at 20°C. The stated solubility test uses 1 mL sample in 30 mL distilled water; benzyl alcohol has limited water solubility and should not be described as completely water-miscible.

Fragrance and personal-care formulators evaluate benzyl alcohol as a solvent and selected functional ingredient. Coating, adhesive and specialty-chemical developers assess solvency, evaporation behaviour and compatibility in the complete formulation. Intended regulated applications require an appropriately qualified grade; the industrial listing does not establish finished-product approval.

ZXCHEM supplies bulk benzyl alcohol in 25 kg drums. The matched liquid transport reference is non-dangerous goods, although ingestion, eye contact and skin sensitization remain relevant hazards. Keep sealed and ventilated away from oxidizers, heat and ignition sources, and use controlled liquid transfer.
