STRONG OXIDIZING AGENTS
CLEANING SOLUTIONS SUCH AS CHROMERGE (SULFURIC ACID/DICHROMATE) AND
AQUA REGIA. A REACTION ACCOMPANIED BY LARGE HEAT RELEASE OCCURS WHEN
THE PRODUCT IS MIXED WITH ACIDS. HEAT GENERATED MAY BE SUFFICIENT TO
CAUSE VIGOROUS BOILING CREATING A HAZARD DUE TO SPLASHING OR
SPLATTERING OF HOT MATERIAL.
PRODUCT SLOWLY CORRODES COPPER, ALUMINUM, ZINC, AND GALVANIZED
SURFACES. MATERIALS FOR CONTAINMENT SHOULD BE CONSTRUCTED OF IRON OR
STEEL.
