Is Sodium ethenesulfonate (CAS: 3039-83-6) safe?
Answer
Sodium ethenesulfonate is generally considered safe when handled according to standard laboratory and industrial protocols. However, it may cause skin and eye irritation, and its vapors can be harmful if inhaled. Safety data sheets (SDS) recommend using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and lab coats. It is classified as a corrosive substance, so proper ventilation and containment are necessary to ensure safe handling and compliance with OSHA and EPA regulations.
