Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling Information
  • JEFFAMINE® M-3085 amine may be stored under air at ambient temperatures for extended periods.
  • A nitrogen blanket is suggested for all storage, however, to reduce the effect of accidental exposure to high temperatures and to reduce the absorption of atmospheric moisture and carbon dioxide.
  • It should be noted that pronounced discoloration is likely to occur at temperatures above 140°F (60°C), whatever the gaseous pad.
  • Cleaning of lines and equipment containing JEFFAMINE® M-3085 amine can be accomplished using warm water and steam.
  • In the event of spillage of this product, the area may be flushed with water.
  • The proper method for disposal of waste material is by incineration with strict observance of all federal, state, and local regulations.
