Storage & Handling

Storage Information

During storage an increase in viscosity may be observed particularly at low temperatures. This may lead to turbidity and possible sedimentation of active matter. Consequently, this may hinder the pouring or emptying process. It is therefore recommended to homogenize the product with stirring and slight heating (max. 40 °C) just prior to use. This will not affect overall product quality and performance.
