Safety & Health
- Safety Information
Like many industrial processed powdery materials, cellulose ether dusts are combustible and can cause dust explosions. Dust formation must be avoided or kept to a minimum. Care should be taken to prevent ignition from heat, spark, open flames or hot surface.
Packaging & Availability

- Packaging and Transport
BERMOCOLL M 30 Q is packed in a polyethylene bag. Net weight 15 kg. We recommend emptying the bags from the bottom. The empty bags can be recycled or burned. In unopened bags, BERMOCOLL M 30 Q can be stored for several years. In opened bags, the moisture content of BERMOCOLL M 30 Q will be influenced by the air humidity.At the temperatures above 250°C (480°F), charring of BERMOCOLL M 30 Q will occur. At high temperatures and in contact with an open flame, BERMOCOLL M 30 Q will burn slowly with the characteristics of cellulose.
Storage & Handling
- Storage Conditions
- Bermocoll® M 30 Q is easily dispersed in cold water of pH 7 or less. Bermocoll® M 30 Q can form lumps when added to an alkaline liquid. To avoid this, it should be added as a ready stock solution, as a slurry in slight acid water or in an organic solvent, or as a dry mix with other powder materials. The dissolving time after dispersion is influenced by the water pH. Alkaline additives can be used to speed up the dissolving process. At the temperatures above 250 °C (480 °F), charring of Bermocoll® M 30 Q will occur. At high temperatures and in contact with an open flame, Bermocoll® M 30 Q will burn slowly with the characteristics of cellulose.
