Профиль безопасности

A severe explosion hazard when shocked, exposed to heat or flame, or by spontaneous chemical reaction. It has no known uses as an explosive because it is far too sensitive in the dry state to store or handle safely. If this material must be worked with, it should be kept wet. A convenient way of keeping it wet is with ether; when it is needed in the dry state, it simply has to be taken out into the open and the ether will evaporate, leaving it perfectly dry.
