- Storage
- Hostapur OS liquid can be stored for at least 12 months in original sealed containers at room temperature under the recommended conditions. During longer storage the pH of the product may drop due to hydrolysis. Prolonged storage at temperatures > 30 °C can lead to gel formation on the surface of the product, in particular in drums and containers. After stirring the gel phase is destroyed and the product is again ready to use. If product is stored at a temperature of < 20 °C, the active substance may precipitate. The product can be re-homogenized by stirring and heating. It is not recommended to heat the product above 50 °C.
