Storage & Handling

Shelf Life and Storage Condition

Shelf life:

  • In a controlled study, Procter & Gamble stored glycerin in sealed containers in a controlled environment at 70 - 16 °F (22.8±1.7°C) for 24 months.
  • The glycerin was analyzed peri- odically throughout and at the end of the storage study.
  • All intermediate and final samples maintained adherence to USP limits and odor/flavor requirements.
  • A normal recommended long-term storage temperature for glycerin is ambient conditions.
  • To avoid possible color degra- dation, the optimal storage conditions would be as near to 73 °F (22.8 °C) as possible.
