Perchloric Acid 60% carries significant oxidising, corrosive, and toxic hazards and must be handled under strict controls. Key hazards include:

  • Strong Oxidiser – H271
    May cause fire or explosion and can intensify combustion when in contact with combustible or flammable materials.

  • Corrosive to Metals – H290
    May corrode metal surfaces and equipment.

  • Acute Toxicity (Oral) – H302
    Harmful if swallowed.

  • Skin Corrosion – H314
    Causes severe skin burns and serious eye damage. Contact may result in permanent injury.

  • Specific Target Organ Toxicity – H373
    May cause damage to organs, particularly the thyroid, through prolonged or repeated exposure.

  • Explosion hazard
    Explosive reactions may occur when mixed with reducing agents, combustible materials, powdered metals, or flammable substances.

  • Handling controls
    Use splash-resistant goggles, impervious protective clothing, gloves, and respiratory protection. Store away from combustible and reducing materials in tightly sealed containers.

Strict oxidiser segregation and specialist storage procedures are essential.
