Storage & Handling

HANDLING AND STORAGE

BB-AMIDE curing agents may absorb moisture and carbon dioxide if left in open containers.
In order to avoid increase and possible cloudness we suggest to store BB-AMIDE curing agents at temperatures above 5°C and/or, in any case to let them be conditioned at temperatures above 10°C before use.
When kept in tightly closed containers and in these conditions BBAMIDE curing agents have one year shelf-life.
