Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
- Packaging Information
- Like many industrial processed powdery materials, cellulose ether dusts are combustible and can cause dust explosions.
- Dust formation must be avoided or kept to a minimum.
- Care should be taken to prevent ignition from heat, spark, open flames or hot surface.
- Bermocoll® EBM 5500 is packed in a polyethylene bags.
- Net weight 20 kg.
- We recommend emptying the bags from the bottom.
- The empty bags can be recycled or burned.
Storage & Handling
- Storage Conditions
- In unopened bags, Bermocoll® EBM 5500 can be stored for several years.
- In opened bags, the moisture content of Bermocoll® EBM 5500 will be influenced by the air humidity.
