Packaging & Availability

Packaging Type
Packaging Information

Trigonox® 101-45B-PD is packed in non-returnable poly-lined cartons of 50 lb net weight. Both packaging and transport meet the international regulations. For the availability of other packed quantities contact your Nouryon representative. Trigonox® 101-45B-pd is classified as Organic peroxide type E; solid, Division 5. 2; UN 3108.

Storage & Handling

Storage Condition

Due to the relatively unstable nature of organic peroxides a loss of quality can be detected over a period of time. To minimize the loss of quality, Nouryon recommends a maximum storage temperature

Ts max. 30°C

Note When stored under these recommended storage conditions, Trigonox® 101-45BPD will remain within the Nouryon specifications for a period of at least six months after delivery.
