Storage & Handling Information
  • Store in a clean, dry place. Keep containers tightly closed.
  • The recommended storage temperature is 25 - 35°C.
  • In the original sealed containers and kept at suggested storage conditions, Sparkle 660 can be stored for at least 1 year.
  • Slight separation may occur during storage, which can be reversed by stirring, without affecting the pearlizing property of the product.

  • Storage tanks made of stainless steel (SS 316) or FRP are suitable for storing this product.  

Sparkle 660 should be processed at temperatures 15 - 35°C. Outside this range, the viscosity may increase, making it difficult to pump. This characteristic property can be reversed by stirring the product at 25 - 35°C.  

To avoid the possibility of melting of wax dispersion, the recommended temperature during transport is maximum 35°C. Stacking should be maximum 1+1 carboys.
