Caution! If there are signs of crystalline material in the bottle neck, threads, or around the cap; or if the product inside appears to have dried out completely, do not move or handle the container and contact the Risk Management Office for assistance.
Purchase nitro explosives in quantities of no more than 100 grams to increase the likelihood that it will be used up before it becomes a problem.
Label the container with the date of when it was first opened.
It is important to understand the chemistry of nitro explosives by reviewing the MSDS for a description of the material and manufacturer's handling recommendations or contact the manufacturer.
