Storage

A high level of care in storage to minimize exposure to moisture is recommended to ensure that there is no degradation of the PEMC-4. Once opened, PEMC-4 should be consumed immediately to avoid any premature gelling due to environmental moisture.. To ensure health and safety, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are available and should be consulted prior to use.
