Product Stability

Based upon the results of stability studies, research data or technical product information, Use Before or Re-test dates for J.T.Baker products are established for those chemicals with known limited stability. In the absence of a Use Before or Re-test date, our products can generally be considered stable when they are stored under the following conditions:

• Original, unopened container, and
• In accordance with specific storage directions or limitations provided on the label, or
• If no specific storage directions are provided on the label, the product must be protected from moisture, freezing, and excessive heat.

Once the container is opened, shelf life depends on how the chemical is stored and handled within your facility. Product performance capability is best determined by re-testing the chemical against the original Quality Control tests and specifications provided on the J.T.Baker Certificate of Analysis.
