Packaging & Availability

Packaging Information

Trigonox® 23-CH75 is packed in non-returnable, one gallon polyethylene containers of 7 lb net weight (4 per case) and in five gallon polyethylene containers of 35 lb net weight. Both packaging and transport meet the international regulations. For the availability of other packed quantities consult your Nouryon representative.

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. ) for each organic peroxide product.

  • Ts Max. -10°C (14°F)
  • Ts Min. -20°C (-4°F) to prevent crystallization

Note When stored under these recommended storage conditions, Trigonox® 23-CH75 will remain within the Nouryon specifications for a period of at least 3 months after
delivery.
