CELOPRO® HHB70S constitutes a dust explosion hazard. Dust formation and deposits must be minimized to prevent ignitable dust/air mixtures. Avoid ignition sources such as naked flames, hot surfaces, sparks, and static electricity. CELOPRO starts to decompose at about 200°C, with an ignition temperature >360°C. It burns easily, and the fire may spread.
Packed in 25 kg multilayer paper sacks with polyethylene intermediate layer and inner P.E. bag. When stored in closed containers or its original packaging in a dry place at room temperature, CELOPRO can be kept for a long time. In the case of high viscosity grades, a slow loss of viscosity may occur after lengthy storage (>1 year). CELOPRO absorbs water from moist air. Once opened, the container must be resealed and kept tightly closed.
