- Packaging and Transport
- 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 surfaces. BERMOCOLL ME 1000 X is packed in a polyethylene bag. Net weight 20 kg. We recommend emptying the bags from the bottom. The empty bags can be recycled or burned. In unopened bags, BERMOCOLL ME 1000 X can be stored for several years. In opened bags, the moisture content of BERMOCOLL ME 1000 X will be influenced by the air humidity.At the temperatures above 250°C (480°F), charring of BERMOCOLL ME 1000 X will occur. At high temperatures and in contact with an open flame, BERMOCOLL ME 1000 X will burn slowly with the characteristics of cellulose.
Storage & Handling
- Storage Conditions
- In unopened bags, Bermocoll® ME 1000 X can be stored for several years. In opened bags, the moisture content of Bermocoll® ME 1000 X will be influenced by the air humidity.
- Storage Conditions
- Bermocoll® ME 1000 X should be admixed in dry form before the water is added. Due to its particle size Bermocoll® ME 1000 X will dissolve rapidly after addition of water to the dry mix. At the temperatures above 250 °C (480 °F), charring of Bermocoll® ME 1000 X will occur. At high temperatures and in contact with an open flame, Bermocoll® ME 1000 X will burn slowly with the characteristics of cellulose.
