No particular industrial hazards are encountered in handling liquid alum. However, a face shield and gloves should be worn around leaking equipment. The eyes or skin should be flushed and washed upon contact with liquid alum. Liquid alum becomes very sick upon evaporation and therefore spillage should be avoided. Storage tanks may be open if indoors but must be closed and vented if outdoors. Outdoor tanks should also be heated, if necessary, to keep the temperature above 450F to prevent crystallization. Storage tanks should be constructed of type 316 stainless steel, FRP, steel lined with rubber, polyvinyl chloride, or lead. Liquid alum can be stored indefinitely without deterioration.

Increases in properties are often associated with the extraction of components from the glove material by the pesticide formulation. The stiffening of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) gloves due to extraction of plasticizer is an examjie. 

Chemical resistance factors are more important for aqneons solntion formulations and most important for the formulations that contain an organic solvent. Most common glove materials, with the exceptions of polyvinyl alcohol and very thin (<0.2 mm) natnral rubber gloves, are highly resistant to water and wonld be expected to provide good barriers to permeation by formulations that contain no organic solvents. 

Phenol should be handled with caution, particularly when hot, owing to the release of corrosive and toxic fumes. The use of fume cupboards, enclosed plants, or other environmental containment is recommended. Protective polyvinyl chloride or rubber clothing is recommended, together with gloves, eye protection, and respirators. Spillages on the skin or eyes should be washed with copious amounts of water. Affected areas of the skin should be washed with water followed by application of a vegetable oil. Medical attention should be sought. 

Observe normal precautions appropriate to the circumstances and quantity of material handled. Eye protection and gloves are recommended. Polyvinyl alcohol dust may be an irritant on inhalation. Handle in a well-ventilated environment. 

This substance has extensive lipid solubility and is absorbed immediately by the skin. Additionally, DMM is able to penetrate many materials including plastic and rubber compounds such as latex, polyvinyl chloride, and neoprene in a matter of seconds. In permeability tests, a Silver Shield glove of a flexible, plastic-laminate, offered skin protection from DMM for 4h. This chemically resistant glove, when worn under an outer glove that is resistant to abrasion and tears, may provide limited protection for direct handling of DMM. 

Dimethylmercury is more toxic than the monomethyl form. In a well publicized case, it was associated with the fatality of a research chemist. The researcher was exposed by dermal absorption after spilling a small amount of the compound on her latex gloves. Dimethylmercury was found to penetrate disposable latex and polyvinyl chloride gloves in 15 s or less. Where possible, the use of inorganic mercury salts is recommended as a substitute in laboratory...

PERSONAL PROTECTION wear rubber protective clothing, polyvinyl plastic or neoprene aprons, rubber boots, and chemical-resistant gloves wear splash-proof safety goggles wear self-contained breathing apparatus. 

PERSONAL PROTECTION Wear neoprene or polyvinyl alcohol suit or aprons for splash protection neoprene or polyvinyl alcohol type gloves plus neoprene safety shoes are also recommended chemical safety goggles are necessary enclose operations and use local exhaust ventilation at site of chemical release wear self-contained breathing apparatus. 

PERSONAL PROTECTION Use laboratory protective equipment (lab coat, gloves, footwear, vent hood) use polyvinyl chloride, not rubber, for gloves wear dust-proof goggles or face shield when working with powders or dusts wear self-contained breathing apparatus operated in positive pressure mode. 

PERSONAL PROTECTION wear chemical protective clothing (suits, gloves, footwear, headgear, etc.), constructed of polyvinyl alcohol material wear splash-proof chemical safety goggles appropriate respirators are needed in areas where exposure would be above the PEL (125ppm) in high vapor concentrations, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. 

PERSONAL PROTECTION wear neoprene or polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) suit and aprons wear neoprene safety footwear and neoprene or polyvinyl-alcohol-type gloves wear chemical safety goggles, face shield and self contained breathing apparatus. 

PERSONAL PROTECTION wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, solvent-resistant gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls nitrile and neoprene rubbers or polyvinyl alcohol is recommended as protective materials wear splash-proof chemical goggles when working with liquid enclose operations and use local exhaust ventilation at the site of chemical... 

Use a face shield and protective clothing (asbestos or degreased chrome leather gloves with an impermeable polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, or neoprene inner liner high-top leather footwear with pants legs worn outside and over the shoe tops polyvinyl chloride or other approved apron). 

Solvent-resistant gloves and aprons fabricated from or impregnated with polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylidene chloride, or... 

As exposure of skin to H2O2 leads to irritation, in handling large amount of H2O2, goggles and lab coats (made of such protective fibers as polyvinyl chloride) should be worn, together with rubber gloves and laboratory boots. 

Wash gloves appropriately before removing them. (Note some gloves, e g., leather and polyvinyl alcohol, are water-permeable.)...
