-
Storage: Store in a dry, sealed container. Keep away from oxidizers, acids, and ignition sources
Environmental Considerations
Iron powder in bulk is relatively safe, but fine airborne particles can pose a risk to aquatic ecosystems and may oxidize rapidly under humid conditions. Prevent runoff or release into the environment.
