Storage & Handling
- Storage and Handling
Heating Fluon® products in excess of 750°F (399°C) can produce toxic fumes. It is, therefore, necessary to provide local exhaust ventilation in areas where Fluon® products are exposed to high temperatures. Avoid breathing fumes or contaminating smoking tobacco with fumes, powder, or dust.
Thermal decomposition of this product will generate hydrogen fluoride, which is corrosive. Corrosion resistance materials are required for prolonged contact with molten resin. Fluon+ mPLASTICS products should be stored in their original containers. This will be either in re-sealable plastic pails, or in drums with the liner bags and chime rings securely re-fastened. Products should be stored indoors at nominal conditions of 23 C and 50% relative humidity. Products should be dried prior to use.
