Storage & Handling
  • Storage Stability: In sealed original packing 12 months from production date, see remarks below”).
  • Storage Conditions: Room temperature. We recommend maintaining the storage temperature between 20-40 °C (68-104 °F). Below 17 °C, the product solidifies.
  • Annotations: Content and acid number are valid for the day of production. Freezing and careful thawing cycles should not interfere with the quality of the product.

*) Evabopol® 400 99% tends to oxidize at contact with air. This is the main reason for a slow decrease of content. The evolving water causes a slight increase of the acid number. Storage time is valid exclusively for originally sealed packages. 

  • Handling Guidelines: Consult the appropriate Safety Data Sheet for safety and handling guidelines for this product.
