    I’ve gotten 2 skin burns from chemicals with a nitrile glove breakthrough time of <1 second

    underfunded undergrad lab classes without heavy duty gloves shouldn’t be allowed to use fuming nitric acid >:(

      I’m all fairness, nobody should be using fuming nitric acid unless absolutely necessary.

      At least you didn’t catch on fire. It likes to do that too.
