content: Specimen is currently stored in mineral oil, but for exhibit pruposes was previously stored in 3M Novec 7100, which is known to form Hydrofluoric acid (HF) in contact with alcohols. This specimen should never be transfered back to alcohol (ethanol or isopropyl). 3M Novec 7100 is significantly more dense than mineral oil and may be seen accumulating at the bottom of the jar over time. If this is observed mineral oil may be changed to remove residual 3M fluid. Multiple fluid changes may be necessary.
