<br /> Use in a well-ventilated area.
<br /> WARNING:To avoid violent reaction,ALWAYS add material to water and NEVER water to material.
<br /> Avoid smoking,naked lights or ignition sources.
<br /> Avoid contact with incompatible materials.
<br /> When handling,DO NOT eat,drink or smoke.
<br /> Keep containers securely sealed when not in use.
<br /> Avoid physical damage to containers.
<br /> Always wash hands with soap and water after handling.
<br /> Work clothes should be laundered separately.Launder contaminated clothing before re-use.
<br /> Use good occupational work practice.
<br /> Observe manufacturer's storage and handling recommendations contained within this SDS.
<br /> Atmosphere should be regularly checked against established exposure standards to ensure safe working conditions are
<br /> maintained.
<br /> Store in original containers.
<br /> Keep containers securely sealed.
<br /> Store in a cool,dry,well-ventilated area.
<br /> Other information Store away from incompatible materials and foodstuff containers.
<br /> Protect containers against physical damage and check regularly for leaks.
<br /> Observe manufacturer's storage and handling recommendations contained within this SDS.
<br /> Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
<br /> DO NOT use aluminium or galvanised containers
<br /> Check regularly for spills and leaks
<br /> Lined metal can,lined metal pail/can.
<br /> Plastic pail.
<br /> Polyliner drum.
<br /> Packing as recommended by manufacturer.
<br /> Check all containers are clearly labelled and free from leaks.
<br /> For low viscosity materials
<br /> � Drums and jerricans must be of the non-removable head type.
<br /> Suitable container � Where a can is to be used as an inner package,the can must have a screwed enclosure.
<br /> For materials with a viscosity of at least 2680 cSt.(23 deg.C)and solids(between 15 C deg.and 40 deg C.):
<br /> Removable head packaging;
<br /> Cans with friction closures and
<br /> low pressure tubes and cartridges
<br /> may be used.
<br /> Where combination packages are used,and the inner packages are of glass,porcelain or stoneware,there must be
<br /> sufficient inert cushioning material in contact with inner and outer packages unless the outer packaging is a close fitting
<br /> moulded plastic box and the substances are not incompatible with the plastic.
<br /> Inorganic acids are generally soluble in water with the release of hydrogen ions.The resulting solutions have pH's of
<br /> less than 7.0.
<br /> Inorganic acids neutralise chemical bases(for example:amines and inorganic hydroxides)to form salts-neutralisation
<br /> can generate dangerously large amounts of heat in small spaces.
<br /> The dissolution of inorganic acids in water or the dilution of their concentrated solutions with additional water may
<br /> generate significant heat.
<br /> The addition of water to inorganic acids often generates sufficient heat in the small region of mixing to cause some of
<br /> the water to boil explosively. The resulting"bumping"can spatter the acid.
<br /> Inorganic acids react with active metals,including such structural metals as aluminum and iron,to release hydrogen,a
<br /> flammable gas.
<br /> Inorganic acids can initiate the polymerisation of certain classes of organic compounds.
<br /> Inorganic acids react with cyanide compounds to release gaseous hydrogen cyanide.
<br /> Inorganic acids generate flammable and/or toxic gases in contact with dithiocarbamates,isocyanates,mercaptans,
<br /> nitrides,nitriles,sulfides,and strong reducing agents.Additional gas-generating reactions occur with sulfites,nitrites,
<br /> thiosulfates(to give H2S and SO3),dithionites(SO2),and even carbonates.
<br /> Storage incompatibility Acids often catalyse(increase the rate of)chemical reactions.
<br /> WARNING:Avoid or control reaction with peroxides.All transition metal peroxides should be considered as potentially
<br /> explosive.For example transition metal complexes of alkyl hydroperoxides may decompose explosively.
<br /> The pi-complexes formed between chromium(0),vanadium(0)and other transition metals(haloarene-metal complexes)
<br /> and mono-or poly-fluorobenzene show extreme sensitivity to heat and are explosive.
<br /> Avoid reaction with borohydrides or cyanoborohydrides
<br /> Reacts with mild steel,galvanised steel/zinc producing hydrogen gas which may form an explosive mixture with air.
<br /> Avoid any contamination of this material as it is very reactive and any contamination is potentially hazardous
<br /> Sulfuric acid:
<br /> is a strong oxidiser
<br /> reacts with water or steam
<br /> reacts violently with many substances including reducing agents,combustible materials,organic substances,alkalis,
<br /> ammonium tetraperoxochromate,aniline,1,2-ethanediamine,ethanolamine,isoprene,mesityl oxide,endo--
<br /> norbanecarboxylic acid ethyl ester,perchlorates,sodium carbonate,zinc chlorate
<br /> reacts,possibly causing ignition or explosion,with many substances,including non-oxidising mineral acids,organic
<br /> acids,bases,reducing agents,acetic anhydride,acetone cyanohydrin,acetonitrile,acrolein,acrylates,acrylonitrile,
