Storage and Handling

Luban DMDH-6400 must be protected from direct sunlight and should be stored in a shaded and completely dry area. During handling and processing, the material should be kept in a well-ventilated area to prevent the accumulation of dust and fumes. Contact with strong oxidizers, excessive heat, sparks or open flame should be avoided as this could initiate the degradation process and consequently impact the quality of the material.

Safety

Luban DMDH-6400 is not classified as dangerous preparation. For further information about safety in handling and processing please refer to the Safety Data Sheet.

Food Contact

Luban DMDH-6400 meets the requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as specified in 21 CFR 177.1520, covering safe use of polyolefin articles and components of articles intended for direct food contact. For additional information on approved conditions of use for food contact applications, please refer to the “Product Stewardship Declaration”.

Recycling

The product is suitable for recycling using modern methods of shredding and cleaning. In-house production waste should be kept clean to facilitate direct recycling.
