Safety Information

At high temperatures and in contact with an open flame, Bermocoll E 320 FQ will burn slowly with the characteristics of cellulose.

Storage Condition

In unopened bags, Bermocoll E 320 FQ can be stored for several years. In opened bags, the moisture content of BERMOCOLL Prime 3500 will be influenced by the air humidity. At the temperatures above 250 °C (480 °F), charring of BERMOCOLL Prime 3500 will occur. 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 surfaces.

Packaging Information

Bermocoll E 320 FQ is packed in polyethylene plastic bags. Net weight 20 kg. We recommend emptying the bags from the bottom. The empty bags can be recycled or burned.

Performance Advantages Cellulose Ethers Versus Synthetics

Water retention - Bermocoll helps to retain the water within the paint film and also to delay it from penetrating into the substrate or evaporating. This gives an increased open time.; Contribute to dispersion by improving flow during grinding.; Contribute to stabilization (prevent flocculation) of pigments.; Robust/Stable viscosity and creamy texture.; Natural renewable polymer with chief component wood pulp or cotton linters.; Performance advantages: Low viscous; Maximum open time/water retention.; Leveling.; High application (ICI) viscosity.; Performance advantages: High viscous; Efficiency; Texture; Economic
