    Safety & Health

    Safety and Handling Consideration
    • It is important to mix initiators and promoters in proper sequence. The promoter should never be mixed directly with the initiator.
    • The cure time may change with the ambient temperature, humidity, amount and ratio of promoters and initiators. A small experiment before construction is recommended to confirm the amount of promoters and initiators.
    • The specification is 2011 edition and may change with the technological improvement.
