- HIGHLIGHTS
BERMOCOLL EHM Extra is a specialty hydrophobically modified methyl ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose.
- Safety Information
At high temperatures and in contact with an open flame, Bermocoll® EHM Extra will burn slowly with the characteristics of cellulose
- Storage Condition
Unopened bags of Bermocoll® EHM Extra can be stored for several years in a cool, dry place. In opened bags, the moisture content of Bermocoll® EHM Extra will be influenced by the air humidity. At temperatures above 250 °C (480 °F), charring of Bermocoll® EHM Extra 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 surface.
- Packaging Information
Bermocoll® EHM Extra is packed in polyethylene bags. Net weight 20 kg bags are available. We recommend emptying the bags from the bottom. The empty bags can be recycled or burned.
