Mr Zhou denied the claim: the container in question had no refrigeration function and could not be plugged in. "It's just a regular cabinet. If it's a freezer, it's plugged in."

The ship company involved, Yangming Shipping, revealed in a "Description of the fire accident on the YM Mobility Ship" that the preliminary investigation revealed that a dangerous goods container on board the ship exploded, and according to the owner's declaration, it was used instead of a dry cabinet, and there was no need to plug in.

Shipping company notice

| Yangming Shipping

Yangming Shipping announced on the 9th that: Preliminary investigation of the explosion of a dangerous goods container on board the ship, according to the owner's declaration, it is used instead of dry cabinets, and there is no need to plug in.

An industry source said that tert-butyl benzoate peroxide does not usually need to use a freezer at room temperature because its self-accelerating decomposition temperature (SADT) is about 60-72 degrees. In the summer, if you do not use the refrigerator and use the ordinary cabinet, the temperature usually does not easily exceed 60 degrees. However, if the freezer is used in the summer, the thermal insulation performance of the freezer may lead to a long-term accumulation of temperature, so that the temperature in the container exceeds 72 degrees, resulting in accidents.

| Hapag-Lloyd

Hapag-lloyd said in a statement on the 9th that it is in close contact with Ningbo Port to assess the situation and take the necessary steps to minimize the impact on its business.
