Handling & storage

The recommended storage temperature for Surfynol DF-220 defoamer is between 20-30°C. If freezing (white precipitation) occurs, the product should be warmed to approximately 25-40°C and mixed thoroughly to restore it to a homogeneous, clear, pale yellow liquid. This should not adversely affect the product’s performance. However, prolonged storage at temperatures above 30°C should be avoided, as this will shorten the shelf life of the product.
