Detailed Product Description:

This spill clean-up kit is specially-configured specifically for Hydrofluoric

Acid and its unique hazards.  It is sized to handle up to the average 1-gallon

(4-liter) spill.

The Hydrofluoric Acid Spill Kit:

Many spill kits say they can be used on HF but their neutralizers contain

sodium carbonate.  Though a very effective neutralizer for all common acids,

its use on HF will produce the extremely toxic salt, Sodium Fluoride as a by-product.

Our neutralizer contains calcium hydroxide which will neutralize the HF spill

to the insoluble and non-toxic Calcium Fluoride thus simplifying the subsequent

residue disposal.

Hydrofluoric Acid First Aid:

Recognizing that HF is probably the most dangerous industrial acid in existence,

this kit is further equipped with a tube of Calcium Gluconate Gel for emergency

treatment of skin contact with this acid.

Precautions:

Because of this acid’s unique idiosyncrasies, it is important to fully understand

the hazards associated with it.  Click on the following links for case studies and

further descriptions of the dangers.
