Storage & Handling

Storage Information
  • Store covered in a dry, well ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Prevent from freezing. This product will crystallize at 10ºC and may precipitate from solution during storage. Store material above 20ºC.
  • If material freezes, we suggest heating the material to 100 - 110ºF and agitate the container until material goes back into uniform solution. Material tends to settle when frozen, but overall quality is not impacted.
