shelf life. Ideal storage conditions are outlined for each item. An approxi-
mate period of time after which the material will no longer be suitable for
its intended use is also presented.. The term “cool” denotes temperatures
from above freezing up to 110 degrees Fahrenheit when stored out of direct
sunlight.. The term “dry” is usually used to denote an area where
conden.
sation does not come in contact with the packaged or’contents (for example,
storing on pallets away from walls in an enclosure or building).
Periodic
e=minat. ions of the containers or material should be made mnre frequently
when storage conditions vary from the ideal.
For applications where quality
may be critical
each compound should be analyzed prior to use. All the
chemicals covered in this standard are solvents and should therefore be
stored away from plastics and rubber. MOSt of these chemicals are volatile
and should be stored under good ventilation and kept tightly sealed.
Shelf
life is dated fmm the date of manufacture. All chemicals in this standard
shall not be older than one year from the date of manufacture when purchssed
except where specified otherwise under storage data.”
