Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 1 Year
- Storage & Handling Information
- Store the material in a clean, dry place below 40°C, away from moisture, direct heat and sunlight.
- Agglomerates may be formed on storage.
- Since the material is hygroscopic in nature, use the product within a week after opening the bag. Keep the bags tightly closed.
- In the original sealed condition, when stored as suggested, the shelf life of the product is one year.
- 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 ≥ 7.0. During storage, to avoid lumping, do not stack more than 8 bags (non-palletized) one above the other and if palletized, single pallet on ground or in rack.
- Jumbo bags should be stored only with crates and should not be stacked one above the other during storage.
