Safety & Health
- Safety and Handling
- Bermocoll® MT 500 is intended for dry mixing with other powder materials and should not be used for direct dissolving in water.
- At the temperatures above 250 °C (480 °F), charring of Bermocoll® MT 500 will occur.
- At high temperatures and in contact with an open flame, Bermocoll® MT 500 will burn slowly with the characteristics of cellulose.
Packaging & Availability
- Country Availability
- 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 surface.
- Bermocoll® MT 500 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.
- At the temperatures above 250°C (480°F), charring of Bermocoll® MT 500 will occur.
- At high temperatures and in contact with an open flame, Bermocoll® MT 500 will burn slowly with the characteristics of cellulose.
Storage & Handling
- Storage Information
- In unopened bags, Bermocoll® MT 500 can be stored for several years.
- In opened bags, the moisture content of Bermocoll® MT 500 will be influenced by the air humidity
