Storage & Handling

Storage Conditions
  • TERWET® 5835 Surfactant may be satisfactorily stored in carbon steel tanks using steel pipes and pumps although storage in 304 or 316 stainless steel is highly recommended.
  • Caution must be exercised to keep the material in the anhydrous state to prevent severe corrosion to the carbon steel tank and related equipment.
  • A drier on the breathing nozzle is recommended to help maintain anhydrous conditions in the storage tank.
  • An inert atmosphere must be used for carbon steel tanks.
  • For longer term color stability, it is recommended that the product be stored under an inert atmosphere.
  • Low pressure steam coils in storage tanks and steam tracing of transfer lines should be provided in cases where low environmental temperatures may make pumping of the product difficult.
