Drying conditions
UBE NYLON is supplied dry (moisture content < 0,1%) and packed in high barrier films. However, as polyamide is a
hygroscopic material, the user should take a special care of the possible moisture absorption once the bag or liner box
has been opened. In case of moisture absorption, the material should be dried with dehumidified air at 80ºC for more
than 4 hours.
Storage
Well-sealed packages could be stored in cool and dry conditions over long periods of time. Protect the packages from
heat and direct sunlight to prevent possible damages.
Health & environmental data
Please refer to the corresponding UBE NYLON grade SDS.
