Handling and Storage Guidelines
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption as the copolymer is hygroscopic.
- Safety: Generally considered low toxicity, but standard industrial chemical safety precautions (gloves, safety glasses) should be used when handling to avoid skin and eye contact.
Note: Specific toxicological data may vary by formulation. Always consult the product's Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed handling and safety information.
