APS must be stored dry in closed containers and protected from direct sunlight, heat and humidity. It must not be contact with organic matter, rust, metal and reductant matter in order to avoid catalytic decomposition and explosion. The product as supplied or in solution needs to be handled with appropriate care. The eye, skin and clothes must be protected when working with APS as damp powder or aqueous solution has a bleaching and slightly corroding effect. Please refer to MSDS for detailed information on Storage & Handling.
