Storage & Handling

Storage Information

Normal safety precautions (i.e., gloves, safety goggles) should be employed when handling BIO-SOFT® N25 Series products.
Keep your nose, eyes, and extended skin contact away from each other.
Wash exposed areas thoroughly after handling material.
While diluting the BIO-SOFT® N25 Series products, as with all alcohol ethoxylates, they are prone to gelling.
If the product is diluted into water, heating may be required to minimize or eliminate gel formation.
It is recommended that the BIO-SOFT® N25 Series products be stored in sealed containers and kept in a cool, dry place.
If the products are frozen, they should be heated gently and stirred to ensure they are homogeneous before use.
