sodium perchlorate

sodium perchlorate 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 perchlorate may cause irritation to skin, eyes, or respiratory tract, or has low-level systemic toxicity. Adequate ventilation must be provided in work areas. Personal protective equipment (gloves, eye protection) is recommended during handling.

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