Other Notes
1. When storing industrial grade sodium acetate, attention should be paid to minimizing temperature changes in the warehouse and avoiding humid areas. Industrial grade sodium acetate is prone to clumping when in contact with water or other liquids, and should be stored in original packaging or sealed containers.
2.Under normal circumstances, industrial grade sodium acetate will not cause harm, but necessary measures should also be taken to avoid contact with human skin and eyes, causing accidental damage.
