    A risk assessment form was completed for an experiment involving the usage of hydrofluoric acid (HF) for electrochemical etching in the CSMM3 Lab at the National University of Singapore. The form identified spillage of the HF solution as a hazard, with possible exposure to liquid and vapors posing risks. Existing controls included applying a neutralizer in the event of a spill less than 100ml to decontaminate surfaces. Additional controls of ensuring a spill kit was present before work commenced were noted. The assessment was conducted by Sara Azimi and approved by Mark Breese.
