What are Class 5.2 Organic Peroxides?
Organic peroxides are substances that contain the peroxide functional group and can be thermally unstable. Depending on the product and storage conditions, they may decompose rapidly, release heat or contribute to fire hazards.
Common examples include:
- Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (MEKP)
- Benzoyl peroxide
- Organic peroxide curing agents
- Resin hardeners and catalysts
- Polymerisation initiators
Because organic peroxides can be sensitive to heat, contamination and shock, they should be stored in a dedicated organic peroxide storage cabinet designed for hazardous chemical storage.
Requirements of AS 2714:2008 – The Storage and Handling of Organic Peroxides
AS 2714:2008 – The Storage and Handling of Organic Peroxides provides guidance for the safe storage and handling of Class 5.2 organic peroxides. The standard aims to minimise the risks associated with fire, decomposition, chemical reactions and workplace exposure.
Key considerations include:
Spill Containment
Storage cabinets should incorporate suitable spill containment measures to capture leaks and spills and prevent contamination of surrounding areas.
Segregation
Organic peroxides should be stored separately from incompatible substances including flammable liquids, combustible materials, reducing agents and other chemicals that may trigger hazardous reactions.
Hazard Identification
Cabinets should display appropriate Class 5.2 organic peroxide signage to ensure hazards are clearly identified and visible to workers and emergency responders.
Secure Storage
Hazardous chemicals should be stored securely and accessed only by authorised personnel. Lockable cabinets assist with access control and workplace safety.
Choosing the Right Organic Peroxide Storage Cabinet
When selecting an organic peroxide storage cabinet, consider:
- Types of organic peroxides being stored
