How should corrosive materials be stored?
If you’re keeping dangerous chemicals in storage, you’ll want to make sure that you read up on how you can go about keeping items safe storage away from the dangerous stuff! I think that must corrosive and explosive materials definitely need to be labelled and most certainly you need to be using containers that will be able to withstand or hold the substances safely over an extended period of time. That and please check up on these items every once in a while to make sure they are all intact!
The area used to store corrosive acids must be carefully designed to ensure spills of acid will not come into contact with bare metal or cellulosic materials with nitric acid. Strong organic acids should be stored separately from mineral acids. The perchloric acids must be stored in glass containers separated from the organic materials. Strong acids must be stored separately from strong bases. Care must also be taken to ensure acids are not stored near substances which react with them to evolve heat, hydrogen or explosive gases.
