Transporting Chemicals Between Classes
Secondary containment should always be used for carrying bottled chemicals between the storeroom and your classroom or between labs. A rubber safety carrier or plastic safety carrier designed to cushion the bottle is the best option. A 5-gallon plastic bucket will also provide secondary containment but is not as safe. Secondary containment is important even if you use a cart to transport chemicals.
Another solution for providing secondary containment is to purchase chemicals in PVC-coated glass or plastic bottles. The bottle may break, but the PVC outer envelope retains the chemical and glass shards. Spend a few extra dollars and purchase your concentrated acids in PVC-coated glass bottles. All other chemicals from Flinn come in either plastic or PVC-coated glass bottles. Rely on Flinn to make your classroom safer.
