What should solvent cement and primers not be exposed to during storage?

Solvent cement and primers should not be exposed to sparks, open flames, or heat during storage due to their flammable nature. These substances often contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which can easily ignite when exposed to high temperatures or open flames. Ensuring that these materials are kept away from potential ignition sources is crucial to prevent fire hazards.

While moisture, extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, and strong chemicals can also affect the integrity and performance of solvent cements and primers, the immediate danger posed by sparks and flames makes proper storage away from such hazards a top priority. Understanding the risks associated with chemical storage helps ensure safety and compliance with relevant safety regulations.
