Storage and handling Lapox® ARTF-36 is highly reactive and hence has a tendency to increase viscosity if
stored for longer time at high-temperature than recommended. Never store in direct
sunlight, warm areas, particularly near heat sources. Shelf-life of this product is 1 year
from the date of manufacturing, if stored between 2°C and 8°C in an original sealed
container. However the resin can be stored at ambient temperature also. But in this case
the shelf-life may reduce to certain extent depending on storage temperature. Please
refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed instructions on storage and handling.
Safety Wear personal protective equipment (PPE). Avoid contact with the eyes and skin. In case
of direct contact and irritation, the resin should be washed off immediately with soap and
warm water. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Please refer to the Safety Data Sheet
(SDS) of Lapox® ARTF-36 for detailed safety instructions.
Spills and disposal In case of spills, sweep up and shovel the spilled material. Keep spilled material in
suitable, closed containers for disposal. Soak up with an absorbent such as clay, sand or
other suitable material. Flush area with water to remove trace residue. Do not allow the
product to reach the sewage system. Waste must be disposed of in accordance with
federal, state or local regulations, as applicable.
