Because the iron drum is a steel product, it is very easy to rust in a humid environment. Rust will cause the paint on the surface of the iron drum to peel off, or the electroplating layer to peel off, resulting in damage to the surface quality. Long-term corrosion, the iron barrel may leak or be seriously corroded inside, losing its use value.

Therefore, iron drums must be protected from moisture during storage and transportation. Such as rain, water immersion, the ground is wet, the environment is full of water vapor, etc., these environments are very easy to cause the iron barrel to rust.

Under normal circumstances, iron drums should be stored in a dry and ventilated canopy or warehouse.

Iron drums should be protected from corrosion

In the production site of chemical enterprises, there are corrosive gases in the air. These corrosive gases will chemically react with the raw material steel plates of the iron drums, causing them to cause corrosive damage, thus losing their basic function of protecting goods.

Therefore, when chemical companies store iron drums, they should not only store them for convenience, but store them at the production site nearby. Instead, it should be stored in a site far away from the production site. It is also necessary to prevent the steel drum from getting wet and rusting during storage.
