APPLICATION OF LUPEROX 101-PS-45
• Cross-linking of Silicon Rubber
HANDLING OF ORGANIC PEROXIDES
Peroxides are flammable, keep away from sources of ignition and heat. Store in a cool dark
place - well separated from accelerators and other flammable materials.
Never mix peroxides and accelerators together; add each component separately to the resin.
Store peroxides in their original containers. Contact with rust, ash dirt, accelerators and
many chemicals can cause violent decomposition.
Even in diluted form peroxides have a corrosive effect on the skin and eyes. Always wear
gloves and protective goggles when handling peroxides.
IN CASE OF ACCIDENTS - FIRST AID
EYES:
In case of eye contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for atleast 15 minutes.
Call a Doctor.
MOUTH - INGESTION:
In case of accidental swallowing, administer water in small sips, call a doctor immediately.
SKIN - BODY
Remove soaked clothes immediately. Wash skin with plenty of water and cover skin with
sterilized bandages.
SPILLAGE:
If peroxide is spilled, absorb with inert material e.g. Vermiculite or clean sand immediately
and destroy in accordance with local regulations.
FIRE:
Small fires: Suitable extinguishers are waterspray and foam.
Large fires: Fight fire from safe distance (10-15 m). Call a fire brigade immediately.
