Alessandra,

- A laboratories that require a Chemical Hygiene Plan need Standard Operating Procedures

- If you look on Sigma's SDS for Sodium Fluoride you see:

2.3 Hazards not otherwise classified (HNOC) or not covered by GHS
Strong hydrogen fluoride-releaser

Based on that I would expect the lab to have unexpired Calcium gluconate available.

Hi Everyone,

I am interested in knowing how manage safety of fluorinated compounds.

For example, do you request an SOP and exposure management plans for everything?

We have a very well defined policy for hydrofluoric acid but I am curious to know how other universities manage safety for other compounds such as ammonium fluoride and sodium fluoride. Where do you draw the line?

Thank you,

Alessandra
