IX. REACTIVITY DATA
Stability ** Stable –40 to 212 degrees F.
Polymerization ** None
Hazardous Decomposition ** Only in case of fire or long term exposure to temperatures in excess of 275 degrees F.
X. SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
SHOCKtec® Air2Gel is a stable solid within the given ranges, and because of the chemical reactions made to the original polymers in the Air-Frothing process, spillage & leakage is not a concern in the transformed state.
XI. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS AND STORAGE
Products are not adversely affected by temperatures in the –40 to 212 degree F. However, it is best to store at ambient room temperature. Products are sensitive to ultraviolet light. Protect the product from the direct sunlight.
