Storage & Handling
- Storage and Handling
Fluon® ETFE C88AXMP-HT should be stored in clean, dry conditions. No special treatment is required. Any partially used sacks should be resealed to prevent ingress of contamination. The resin will not absorb water. If the resin is brought into a warm work place, from a colder store, it should not be opened until it has reached the temperature of the work place – this will prevent potential condensation forming on the pellets.
