PINEREZ™ 2498 E can be available as pastilles in bags or as molten in heated tank wagon.
Product shelf life for pastilles is 9 months.
Due to the thermoplastic nature of the product, and to prevent pastilles sintering (aka remassing) and fusing together, we advise storage in a temperature-controlled area <25oC and to avoid direct sunlight.
Do not stack pallets and prevent prolonged storage.
Sintering (aka remassing) does not affect the specification of the product, and if it can be readily broken this is not a basis for rejection.
