Can 84 Disinfectant Be Brought on a Car?
2 Answers
84 disinfectant has strong corrosiveness and is classified as a prohibited item, which cannot be brought onto public transportation. 84 disinfectant is a highly effective disinfectant primarily composed of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO). It is a colorless or light yellow liquid with an irritating odor, containing 5.5% to 6.5% available chlorine. It is widely used for sanitation and disinfection in hotels, tourism, hospitals, food processing industries, households, etc. Storage precautions: Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The warehouse temperature should not exceed 30°C. It should be stored separately from acids and must not be mixed. The storage area should be equipped with emergency leak handling equipment and suitable containment materials.
When using the car on weekdays, I can bring 84 disinfectant on board, but special attention must be paid to safe storage. I usually place the disinfectant in the innermost corner of the trunk, ensuring the bottle is tightly sealed and wrapped in a plastic bag or a dedicated container to prevent leakage. On hot days, never let it be exposed to the sun, as the bottle may expand and crack, spilling the liquid which not only damages interior materials like seats or flooring but also emits unpleasant odors that can affect respiratory health. I regularly check if the bottle cap is loose, especially after long bumpy trips. When children are in the car, place it high and secure to prevent them from reaching it. Control the amount you carry—small bottles are sufficient to meet disinfection needs while ensuring worry-free driving. Don’t forget to quickly confirm the safety status after each parking.
