Detailed explanation-1: -Liquid or corrosive chemicals should never be stored on shelves above eye-level. Glass containers should not touch each other on the shelves. Secondary containers or trays should be used for chemical storage whenever possible to minimize the flow of material should a spill or rupture occur.
Detailed explanation-2: -All chemical containers must be appropriately and clearly labelled with the following information: • Name of substance • Hazard category (e.g. corrosive, flammable, oxidising, toxic).
Detailed explanation-3: -General Storage Requirements All chemicals must be stored in a safe, secure location. Hazardous chemicals must be stored below eye level. Do not store chemicals on the floor, window ledges, or balconies. Keep containers closed unless you are dispensing a chemical or adding to the container.
Detailed explanation-4: -Storing chemicals properly reduces the risk for explosions, fires and other accidents. Perhaps the most important factor in chemical storage safety is keeping chemicals in their original containers.
