Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 1 year
- Storage Conditions
- Product must be stored in closed, but vented, containers in an area with good general ventilation and out of direct sunlight to prevent build up of vapors over time. Product must not be stored at temperatures greater than 35°C.
- Avoid adiabatic conditions in pumps which have caused accidents; CO2 evolution and pressure release. Aqueous solutions in plastic containers should not be left in direct sunlight.
