Safety & Health

Toxicity

Tests conducted through independent laboratories have found Brilliant BFE-Series Fluorescent Emulsions to be "essentially non-toxic." A summary of the test data is listed on the MSDS, which is available upon request. Good industrial hygiene and handling methods are essential in the use of all products whether or not they are determined to be hazardous.

Storage & Handling

Storage

When stored in a cool, dry environment, BFE Emulsions are stable for six to twelve months but may experience slight settling, requiring agitation. Colorant containers should be kept closed to minimize contamination.
