Packaging & Availability

Storage & Handling

Storage & Handling
  • Normal safety precautions (e.g., gloves and safety goggles) should be employed when handling CEDEPAL TD-403 MKLD. Contact with eyes, nose or prolonged contact with skin should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after handling CEDEPAL TD-403 MKLD.
  • Non-Bulk Storage Recommendations: CEDEPAL TD-403 MKLD should be stored in closed containers and kept in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). If material is frozen it should be heated gently and stirred to ensure it is homogeneous prior to use. Polyethylene drums are recommended for storage of CEDEPAL TD-403 MKLD.
  • Bulk Storage Recommendations: CEDEPAL TD-403 MKLD should be stored in 316 stainless steel or fiberglass with a corrosion liner. Mild agitation is recommended while storing to maintain homogeneity. Material should stored between 73-104°F (23-40°C). An internal hairpin coil of 316 stainless steel with low pressure steam (under 50 psig) should be used if heating is required. Pumps, pipes and transfer lines should be 316 stainless steel.
  • Due to the sensitivity of the Methylchloroisothiazolinone/Methylisothiazolinone preservative, the storage temperature should not exceed 110°F (43°C) for any extended period of time. Degradation of the preservative is accelerated by temperature > 104°F (>40°C).
Workplace Exposure

Occupational exposure can occur primarily through skin contact or via inhalation of vapors and mists. Engineering controls, personal protective equipment, and other workplace safety practices should be used to control these exposures.
