18. From an MSDS for 40% hydrofluoric acid (Sigma-Aldrich): "Highly toxic. Hydrofluoric (HF) burns require immediate and specialized first aid and medical treatment. Use only in a chemical fume hood (in a lab equipped with a) safety shower and eye bath." Wear a rubber apron, compatible chemical-resistant gloves, chemical safety goggles, and a face shield.
