Storage & Handling
- Storage Conditions
- 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.
- ALFONIC 1216CO-7 Ethoxylate should not be exposed to temperatures in excess of 60°C (140°F) for long periods of time to avoid ALFONIC 1216CO-7 Ethoxylate degradation.
- Based on experience, ALFONIC 1216CO-7 Ethoxylate shows no physical and/or chemical changes for at least 24 months after the manufacturing date when stored under conditions that minimize exposure to air, moisture, and extreme temperatures.
- It is recommended to test the ethoxylate for key specifications every 24 months after the manufacturing date.
