- Storage and Handling
At temperatures up to 25°C storage stability packed in original containers amounts to at least 365 days. Synthetic resins containing water may freeze or get inhomogeneous at temperatues below 0°C. By this the product will not suffer any damage, but the necessary regeneration requires extended heat treatment at 40 - 50°C with continuous stirring. It is therefore recommended to ensure frostproof storage of such products.; Lowest storage temperature: - 5°C; When handling and processing epoxy resins and hardeners, the rules and regulations established by local authorities should be observed. A Material Safety Data Sheet is available on request.
- Distinguishing Features
