Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 2 years
- Storage and Handling Conditions
- Store the material in a clean, dry place at below 35°C, away from moisture, heat and sunlight.
- Keep the container tightly closed. In the original sealed condition, when stored as suggested, the shelf life of the product is two years.
- Slight pH drop is possible over prolonged storage. In case of drop in pH, it is safe to use the material as long as the pH is ≥ 7.5.
- Soft, easily breakable agglomerates may form on storage.
- Since the product is hygroscopic in nature, use the product within a week after opening the bag / drum.
- During storage, to avoid lumping, stack not more than 7 BOPP bags one above the other and single pallet on ground or in rack.
- During storage, jumbo bags / fibre drums should not be stacked one above the other.
