Integrated Nanosystems Research Facility

In room 2320 the second bench from the door we had an acid spill in the storage area. The container was not in double containment, not properly labeled and the only identification marks were “XV2”. Using ph paper the acid level was 1 – 0. We believe the material was nano strip.

THE INRF IS NOT APPROVED FOR CORROSIVE ACID MATERIALS, ONLY SOLVENTS AND PHOTO RESIST 

Facilities is working on getting the ventilation issues worked out but we still have no time frame as to when this will be resolved.
