Biodegradability   Product is biodegradable. Additional information is available upon request.
Storage &          Normal safety precautions (i.e. gloves and safety goggles) should be employed when handling NINOL
Handling           1301. Contact with the eyes and prolonged contact with the skin should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after
                   handling material.*
                   It is recommended that NINOL 1301 be stored in plastic sealed containers or stainless steel tanks at least No.
                   304 or 316, and kept at temperatures not exceeding 120°F (49°C). Inject one or two pounds of nitrogen to keep
                   the atmosphere. As with all amides, if overheating does occur, amide ester will be formed. To reverse the
                   reaction, NINOL 1301 should be stored at room temperature for approximately one week. Failure to do so may
                   result in formulation products with decreased foam and low viscosity.
