    This chemical compatibility table lists various classes of chemicals and identifies classes that are incompatible. It provides guidance on chemicals that should not be stored or handled together due to safety risks. The table lists chemical classes like acids, bases, metals, oxidizing agents, and solvents. For each class it identifies other classes that are incompatible due to reactions that could occur. For example, it notes that acids should not be mixed with bases or oxidizing agents.
