    Packing & Storage
    Packing The 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate is supplied in a 1-liter amber glass bottle with a secure screw cap and hazard labeling.
    Container Loading (20′ FCL) **Container Loading (20′ FCL):** 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate is typically loaded as 16–18 metric tons in 200 kg plastic drums per 20-foot container.
    Shipping 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (HEMA) should be shipped in tightly sealed, corrosion-resistant containers, protected from moisture, heat, and direct sunlight. It should be classified and labeled as a hazardous material, requiring compliance with relevant transportation regulations (DOT, IATA, IMDG). Proper PPE and ventilation are recommended during handling and unloading.
    Storage 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat, and sources of ignition. Keep the container tightly closed and protected from moisture and contamination. Store away from oxidizing agents, acids, and bases. Refrigeration (2–8°C) is recommended to prevent polymerization. Use proper grounding and anti-static measures to avoid explosion hazards.
    Shelf Life 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate typically has a shelf life of 12 months when stored in a cool, dry, and well-sealed container.
    Application of 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate

    Purity 99%: 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate with 99% purity is used in UV-curable coatings, where high conversion rates and superior film clarity are achieved.

    Viscosity 15 mPa·s: 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate with viscosity of 15 mPa·s is used in dental composites, where optimal handling properties and filler dispersion are obtained.

    Molecular weight 130.14 g/mol: 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate of molecular weight 130.14 g/mol is used in contact lens production, where consistent polymer network formation and hydration are ensured.

    Stability temperature 40°C: 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate with stability up to 40°C is used in biomedical hydrogels, where long-term mechanical integrity and reliable performance are maintained.
