Storage & Handling

Handling

SIROPOL 992 FRA resin contains ingredients, which could be harmful if mishandled. Contact with skin and eyes should be avoided and necessary protective equipment and clothing should be worn.

Saudi Industrial Resins Ltd., maintains Material Safety Data Sheets on all of its products. Material Safety Data Sheets contain health and safety information for your development of appropriate product handling procedures to protect your employees and customers.

OUR MSDS: should be read and understood by all of your supervisory personnel and employees before using SIR`s products in your facilities.

Recommended Storage

DRUMS:- Store at temperatures below 25°C. Storage life decreases with increasing storage temperature. Avoid exposure to heat sources, such as direct sunlight or steam pipes. Keep containers sealed to prevent moisture pickup and monomer loss. Rotate stock.

BULK: - Store in stainless steel tanks or tanks lined with epoxy or phenolic coatings. Observe precautions against heat and moisture (see above). An oxygen or dry air spurge may be desirable to keep inhibitors activated. Store at temperature below 25 °C.
