Further Storage 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. Based on our experience, LPA 142 Solvent 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 solvent for key specifications every 36 months after the manufacturing date.
