P Codes (Precautionary Statements)
-
P260: Do not breathe mist, vapors, or spray.
-
P280: Wear protective gloves, clothing, and eye/face protection.
-
P301 + P330 + P331: IF SWALLOWED: Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting.
-
P305 + P351 + P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do – continue rinsing.
-
P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor if exposed.
-
P273: Avoid release into the environment.
Storage Conditions
-
Store in a sealed, non-metallic container to prevent contamination and reaction with CO₂ in air.
-
Keep in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
-
Maintain temperature control (10-25°C) to prevent precipitation or degradation.
-
Avoid contact with acids, oxidizing agents, and incompatible metals.
Shelf Life
-
Typically 1-2 years under optimal storage conditions.
-
Exposure to air can lead to CO₂ absorption, which may alter pH and chemical stability and precipitation.
