When working with Lithium hydroxide, anhydrous powder, it is important to follow these safety instructions: 1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Always wear appropriate PPE, including safety goggles, gloves, and a lab coat or protective clothing to prevent direct contact with the powder. 2. Ventilation: Work in a well-ventilated area or use a fume hood to prevent inhalation of dust or fumes. Lithium hydroxide can release irritating or toxic fumes when heated or exposed to moisture. 3. Handling: Avoid direct contact with the powder. Use tools such as scoops or spatulas to handle the substance. Do not use bare hands. 4. Storage: Store Lithium hydroxide in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use. 5. Fire precautions: Lithium hydroxide is not flammable, but it can react with water or moisture to produce heat and potentially ignite flammable materials. Keep away from open flames or sources of ignition. 6. Spills and leaks: In case of a spill, carefully clean up the powder using appropriate tools and dispose of it properly. Avoid creating dust or allowing the powder to come into contact with water or moisture. 7. First aid: In case of skin contact, immediately wash the affected area with plenty of water. If the powder gets into the eyes, rinse them thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention. If ingested, seek immediate medical help. 8. Disposal: Dispose of Lithium hydroxide according to local regulations. Do not dispose of it in regular trash or down the drain. 9. Emergency procedures: Familiarize yourself with emergency procedures and the location of safety equipment, such as eyewash stations and fire extinguishers, in case of accidents or spills. Always consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or Safety Data Sheet (SDS) provided by the manufacturer for specific safety information and handling instructions for the particular Lithium hydroxide, anhydrous powder you are working with.
