- Storage and Handling Information
- Small quantities should be stored in sealed bottles, totes and drums at a temperature of 25°C (77°F) or less. Liquid bulk quantities should be padded with a dry inert gas, such as nitrogen, to prevent air from entering the tank or container. The product should not be exposed to temperatures in excess of 60°C (140°F) for long periods of time to avoid product degradation.
- ALFOL 810 Alcohol shows no physical and/or chemical changes for at least 36 months after the manufacturing date when stored under conditions that minimize exposure to air, moisture and extreme temperatures. It is recommended to test the alcohol for key specifications every 36 months after the manufacturing date.
- Safe Handling Advice: Ensure all equipment is electrically grounded before beginning transfer operations.
- Storage/Transport Pressure: Ambient
- Load/Unload temperature: 10 - 54 °C ( 50 - 130 °F)
