Storage & Handling

Storage & Shelf Life
The granules must be stored in dry, normally tempered rooms and in closed containers. For moisture-sensitive materials, the granules must be sealed airtight. Protection against direct sunlight must be guaranteed. The granules are usually subject to the requirements of no shelf life limitation. Shelf Life may be limited by some additives.
