Storing sodium chlorite and HCL was created by martyperea@protonmail.com
I am going to store the 2 MMS ingredients (separately), in amber glass bottles, with plastic lids. But does anyone know if it is ok to keep the styrofoam paper slip in the lid? I attached a picture of what I have. Any input would help. I figure it’s fine; but I am new to this and I am not well versed in the subject. Thank you so much for any input. - Marty

Marty, I have started to replace those white bottle cap liners with PTFE (teflon) liners that I make using thin silicone sheet and a roll of fiberglass tape impregnated with PTFE on the top side. I use a kit of round metal punches that are normally used to punch holes in leather. Teflon is resistant to most chemicals. Discs larger than 1" in diameter I cut with scissors.

According to a website that sells polystyrene (styrofoam), is says Hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid) at 1-5% concentration is resistant to HCL. As the concentration goes UP though, it becomes less resistant. If yours is less than 5% you should be OK.

Scroll down to see website result I am quoting:
