Sodium Hypochlorite Safety Announcement

Buckman’s Inc. has been in the business of selling and delivering sodium hypochlorite for 39 years and our drivers do their best to abide by all safety precautions when delivering chemicals to our customers. An incident a few weeks ago brought a new piece of safety information to our attention that we would like to make you aware of.

On Thursday, August 12th one of our drivers who has been with us for over 19 years was severely injured while delivering sodium hypochlorite to a customer. As he was delivering the sodium hypochlorite, it splashed on his legs and feet. He could not get his work boots off fast enough and the socks he was wearing, which were made partially from wool, melted into his skin almost immediately after the sodium hypochlorite came into contact with his socks. Our driver was rushed to the hospital and is now recuperating from severe 2nd degree burns on his feet and ankles.

We decided to test the reaction between sodium hypochlorite and wool against the reaction between sodium hypochlorite and cotton in our lab. We found that when sodium hypochlorite comes in contact with a cotton sock, nothing happens. When we tested the reaction between sodium hypochlorite and wool, we discovered that the temperature of the sodium hypochlorite went up to 192 degrees within 30 seconds.

We strongly recommend that if you are going to be handling sodium hypochlorite, you avoid wearing wool fabrics in order to avoid injury.
