Stearyl Amine Ethoxylate AC-1802 appears as a white to slightly yellow paste or waxy solid at room temperature. The key storage requirements are moisture-proof, high-temperature-proof, and contamination-proof. The product should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated dedicated warehouse or area. The container must be kept tightly sealed and away from heat sources, sparks, and open flames. It is recommended to set up containment dikes or spill prevention facilities in the storage area to prevent the product or its leakage from entering drains or water bodies.
Regarding compatibility, avoid mixing with incompatible substances such as strong oxidizers, strong acids, and strong bases. Although the product itself is not flammable, it may release irritating or toxic vapors under high-temperature conditions. Therefore, keeping it away from heat sources is a necessary precaution. Containers should be made of corrosion-resistant and leak-proof materials, and clearly labeled with chemical tags for identification and management.
Regarding the shelf life, this product does not have specific shelf life data recorded in the database. Based on industry experience for nonionic surfactant products, under strict compliance with the above storage conditions (especially the temperature range of 10°C to 40°C and sealed moisture-proof storage), the expected shelf life for unopened products is typically 1 to 2 years from the date of manufacture. Users are advised to refer to the shelf life indicated on the product outer packaging label or the factory inspection report. Once opened, the product should be used as soon as possible, and the container should be immediately resealed after each use.

It is recommended to establish a first-in, first-out inventory management system and regularly check the sealing and appearance of containers. If significant changes in product color, odor, or physical state (such as severe discoloration, unusual smell, or stratification) are observed, stop using the product and perform quality re-inspection. Use clean and dry tools when dispensing the product to avoid introducing moisture or impurities that could contaminate the remaining material in the container.
