Sodium stearate should be stored properly to maintain its quality and effectiveness. Here are some storage guidelines:
1. Container: Store sodium stearate in a tightly sealed container to protect it from moisture and contamination.
2. Temperature: Please store in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. The ideal storage temperature is usually between 15°C and 30°C (59°F and 86°F).
3. Humidity: Because sodium stearate absorbs moisture, it must be stored in a low humidity environment to prevent clumping or degradation.
4. Label: Make sure containers are clearly labeled with contents and any relevant safety information.
5. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: Follow any specific safety guidelines provided by the manufacturer, including the use of personal protective equipment when necessary.
