Storage & Handling:
To avoid polymerization, Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) should always be stored in air and not under inert gases. For the effective functioning of the stabilizer, the presence of oxygen is necessary. MMA must contain a stabilizer and be stored at a temperature not exceeding 35 °C. Under such conditions, product stability is maintained for 1 year. In order to minimize the likelihood of excess storage, the storage procedure must strictly follow the first-come-first-go principle. When storing Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) for more than 4 weeks, it is advisable to replenish the content of dissolved oxygen. Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) transportation can be carried out by rail, road, sea, river transport, in accordance with the rules for the transport of goods in force on this type of transport.
