Product

See www.retrologistik.com for processes regarding the return of chemicals and containers, or contact us there if you have further questions.

Waste Disposal

Consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices. Generators of waste containing this contaminant (≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA regulations governing storage, transportation, treatment, and waste disposal. Incineration. 100 500 ppm potassium permanganate will degrade acrylic acid to a hydroxy acid which can be disposed of at a sewage treatment.

Other Information

Acrylic acid is commercially available in stabilized form by addition of polymerization inhibitors (see Chemical Dangers).Acrylic acid solidifies below 14 °C leading to a localized depletion of stabilizer. Follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding thawing.An added stabilizer or inhibitor can influence the toxicological properties of this substance; consult an expert.Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor, or by an authorized person, should be considered.Someone who has shown signs of sensitivity to the substance should avoid any further contact with this substance or any other acrylates.
