Safety & Health
- Safety Information
Elotex® redispersible powders are not classified as hazardous. Powder processing: Elotex® redispersible powders can be blended in all commercial mixers with other dry additives to produce finished products in powder form. Since Elotex® redispersible powders exhibit thermoplastic behaviour, mixing times should be as short as possible, and significant temperature increases caused by strong shear forces should be avoided. All hydraulically and non-hydraulically curing dry mixtures can be easily combined with Elotex® redispersible powder and subsequently mixed with water before application.
Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Information
Standard packaging: 25 kg paper sacks with polyethylene liners. Other types of packaging, such as Big Bags or delivery in silo wagons, are available on request.
Storage & Handling
- Storage Information
Store Elotex® powder in a cool, dry place in original packaging at temperatures not exceeding 25 °C and process within six months after the date of delivery. Avoid storing Elotex® powder under pressure, in damaged sacks, in contact with moisture or heat, or in sacks left open for an extended period, as this may result in blocking of the powder. If the product is stored for longer than six months after the date of delivery, users are advised to evaluate properties required for the intended use.
