Degreasing Powder AR-815 (Drill Bit Cleaning Powder) is a strongly alkaline powdered product with deliquescent properties—it easily absorbs moisture and clumps in humid air, and releases hydration heat upon contact with water. Therefore, moisture prevention is the core of storage management. The storage area must have alkali-resistant, leak-proof flooring, effective containment dikes, away from drains, living areas, and heat sources, maintaining a constant low temperature, strictly isolating from water vapor, steam, and condensation.
For packaging management, the product must be kept in original alkali-resistant containers, completely sealed and stored upright. After each use, reseal immediately to prevent powder exposure to air and moisture absorption. If packaging damage is found, transfer the product to a compatible safety container immediately. Do not continue using damaged packaging for long-term storage.
| Storage Element | Specific Requirement |
|---|---|
| Temperature Condition | Maintain constant low temperature, away from heat sources and direct sunlight |
| Humidity Control | Strictly isolate from water vapor, steam, and condensation to prevent deliquescence |
| Packaging Status | Original alkali-resistant container sealed and stored upright, reseal immediately after use |
| Warehouse Environment | Cool, dry, well-ventilated, with alkali-resistant leak-proof flooring and containment dikes |
| Prohibited Isolation | Must be stored separately from strong acids, peroxides, metal powders, aluminum/zinc and other amphoteric metals in designated areas |
| Security Management | Warehouse locked, display hazardous chemical signs and warning symbols, control personnel access |
| Inventory Principle | Follow FIFO (First In, First Out) to avoid indefinite stacking leading to packaging aging and failure |
The Degreasing Powder AR-815 product database does not specify a specific shelf life in months. According to industry practice for alkaline industrial cleaning powder products, under strict compliance with the above storage conditions, the recommended use period for unopened original products is generally 12 months (from the date of manufacture). For the specific shelf life, please refer to the product packaging.
It should be particularly noted that the validity of the shelf life highly depends on storage conditions. If the storage environment exceeds humidity standards causing product deliquescence and clumping, or if packaging seal is damaged, product performance may significantly decline even before the stated shelf life. Therefore, it is recommended to follow the "First In, First Out" principle for inventory turnover to avoid long-term accumulation of products.
