I just did a lab safety inspection and found a bottle of Benzaldehyde with crystal formation.  The bottle is dated back to 5-25-1989.  I am not sure if this is peroxide or just polymer being formed.  What are your thoughts?  If it is peroxide, what is the proper protocol for handling it? 

 

Thanks,

 

Wayne
