The pigment should not be stored in outdoor areas exposed to weather. All direct contact with moisture should be avoided. When stored correctly, its properties should not deteriorate over time. However, to ensure optimum performance, it is recommended to use the product on a first-in, first-out basis from receipt of shipment.
TIOXIDE® RFDO is available in 25kg bags and a range of flexible intermediate bulk containers.
As with all fine powders, handling titanium dioxide pigments can generate airborne dust. Good industrial hygiene practices should be observed to avoid dust generation and subsequent inhalation. Refer to the material safety data sheet for further information.
