Storage Information

Store covered in a dry, well ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Prevent from freezing. This product will crystallize at -10ºC and may precipitate from solution during storage. Store material above 20ºC.. If material freezes, we suggest heating the material to 100 - 110ºF and agitate the container until material goes back into uniform solution. Material tends to settle when frozen, but overall quality is not impacted.
