Storage containers and packaging

1. Select the appropriate container: Select the appropriate storage container according to the nature of the reagent, such as glass, plastic or metal container. Some reagents may be sensitive to light, air, or humidity, so they need to be stored in well-sealed containers.

2. Packaging requirements: The packaging of reagents should be complete and undamaged, and indicate the name, specifications, production date, shelf life and other information.

Identification and Records

1. Identification: Each reagent should have obvious identification, including name, purity, production date, shelf life, danger level, etc. The identification shall be legible to avoid confusion.

2. Record: Establish a perfect record system to record the information of reagent storage, delivery and use. For special reagents, such as flammable, explosive, toxic, etc., it is necessary to record the storage location, stock and other information.

Precautions

Avoid mixing: Reagents of different properties cannot be mixed to prevent chemical reactions from causing safety accidents.

2. Regular inspection: regularly check the storage of reagents, including temperature, humidity, packaging integrity, etc., to ensure the quality and safety of reagents.

3. No smoking: no smoking in the reagent storage area to prevent fire.

4. Fire prevention measures: The storage area should be equipped with corresponding fire extinguishing equipment and emergency facilities to deal with possible fires and other emergencies.

5. Personal protection: when exposed to the reagent, the staff should wear corresponding protective equipment, such as protective glasses, gloves, etc., to prevent the reagent from causing harm to the human body.

Conclusion

The storage of chemical reagents is an important part of laboratory work, which is directly related to the safety of the laboratory and the accuracy of the experimental results. Therefore, we must attach great importance to the storage of chemical reagents, strictly abide by the storage requirements, and ensure the smooth progress of laboratory work. It is hoped that through the introduction of this paper, we can better understand the storage requirements and precautions of chemical reagents, and provide guarantee for the safety and smooth progress of laboratory work.
