Which rod should not be stored in a rod oven?

  1. Low-Hydrogen

  2. Rutile

  3. Basic

  4. Cellulosic

The correct answer is: Cellulosic

Cellulosic rods have a cellulose coating that can burn at typical rod oven temperatures, causing the rods to lose their effectiveness. While the other options can all be stored in a rod oven, it is important to note that proper storage and handling guidelines should still be followed for each type of rod. Choosing the incorrect rod for storage could lead to damage or loss of effectiveness, resulting in potential safety hazards and loss of productivity.
