sodium peroxide

sodium peroxide is an oxidising substance and must be stored separately from flammable and combustible materials, organic substances, and reducing agents. Oxidiser storage areas require dedicated ventilation and must be kept cool and dry.

sodium peroxide is corrosive to skin, eyes, or metals. Store in acid-resistant or alkali-resistant cabinets as appropriate. Do not store in metal containers. Secondary containment (drip trays) is required. Segregate from incompatible substances such as strong oxidisers.

This substance carries the signal word DANGER, indicating the more severe hazard categories under GHS/CLP. Facilities handling sodium peroxide should ensure a written hazard communication programme, including current SDS, employee training records, and GHS-compliant labelling on all containers.
