What are the storage conditions for Cocamide DEA/CDEA6501-92% (Ninol)?

Cocamide DEA/CDEA6501-92% (Ninol) should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment, with the recommended storage temperature kept between 10～40°C. The container must be sealed, away from heat sources, ignition sources, and incompatible substances.

Detailed Description

Cocamide DEA (Ninol) has certain requirements for environmental conditions during storage. Proper storage methods can effectively prevent product deterioration, delamination, or performance degradation. This product is a light yellow to amber transparent viscous liquid with certain hygroscopicity. Therefore, keeping the container sealed is one of the key measures for storage to avoid moisture absorption and dilution, as well as contamination by external impurities.

In terms of temperature control, it is recommended to maintain the storage temperature steadily between 10～40°C. Excessive heat may accelerate product oxidation and discoloration, leading to degradation of active components; excessively low temperature (freezing) may cause product delamination or crystallization, affecting usage performance and formulation effectiveness. Therefore, avoid direct sunlight and keep away from heat sources and ignition sources.

In addition, this product contains residual diethanolamine. Strictly avoid contact with strong acids, strong oxidizers, and other incompatible substances to prevent dangerous reactions. The storage area should be equipped with leakage emergency treatment equipment and appropriate fire-fighting equipment, and managed in accordance with general chemical storage regulations. Do not store together with food or feed.

Storage Conditions Summary

Precautions

• Close the container promptly after use to avoid prolonged exposure to air that could lead to moisture absorption or contamination.
• Avoid storage at high temperatures; temperatures exceeding 40°C may accelerate product deterioration or darkening.
• Avoid freezing; after freezing, the product may delaminate. Allow it to return to room temperature and stir evenly before use.
• This product is combustible but not flammable. In case of fire, use alcohol-resistant foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, or water spray to extinguish.
• In case of leakage, collect small spills with inert absorbent materials (sand, vermiculite); for large spills, construct dikes to contain and prevent entry into drains or water bodies.
