How to store natural metallic pearlescent pigments in sealed containers?
Natural metallic pearlescent pigments are special pigments that are usually composed of mica flakes, metal oxide coatings and other additives to achieve unique luster and color effects. In order to maintain its performance and extend its service life, the correct storage method is essential. Here are detailed storage guidelines:
Choose a suitable storage container. Choose a container that does not chemically react with pearlescent pigments, such as plastic, glass or stainless steel. The container size should match the storage volume, avoiding too large or too small space to reduce air contact. The container should be designed with a lid or closure that is easy to seal.
Before filling the pigment, clean the container thoroughly to remove dust, oil and other contaminants. Make sure the container is completely dry to avoid moisture from contacting the pigment.
Use high-quality sealing materials, such as rubber gaskets or sealing films, to ensure that the container is completely closed. Check the tightness of the container after sealing to ensure that there is no air leakage.
Label the outside of the container with the name of the pigment, batch number, production date, expiration date and any special storage requirements. Make sure the label is clear and easy to read and will not fade or fall off even after long-term storage.
Store the container in a temperature-stable environment and avoid extreme temperature changes. Keep the storage environment dry and humidity below 50%. Avoid direct sunlight and store in a cool place to prevent the pigment from fading or deterioration.
Place the container in a stable place to avoid vibration or impact. Keep away from mechanical equipment that may cause vibration.
Store pearlescent pigments of different colors separately to avoid color confusion. Store pearlescent pigments according to their types (such as metallic effect, pearl luster, etc.).
Check the stored pearlescent pigments regularly. Check whether the pigments are lumpy, discolored, moldy or have other abnormalities. Follow relevant safety regulations, such as fire prevention and theft prevention. Follow the correct operating procedures when storing and handling pearlescent pigments.
Pay attention to the expiration date or use period of pearlescent pigments and try to use them within the expiration date. Use the first-in-first-out storage principle and give priority to pigments with longer storage time.
Record detailed information on each storage and use of pearlescent pigments. Recording can track the use and storage conditions of the pigments.
Prepare emergency measures, such as leak handling and fire prevention. Train employees to ensure that they understand the correct storage and emergency handling methods.

How to avoid cross contamination when taking natural metallic pearlescent pigments?
When taking natural metallic pearlescent pigments, the key to avoiding cross contamination is to adopt strict operating specifications and use special tools. Here are some specific measures:
Use special tools. Each color or type of pigment should be equipped with a special tool for taking (such as a spoon, scraper, etc.). After taking a pigment, clean the tool immediately or replace it with a clean tool to avoid mixing.
Keep the tool clean. The tool should be thoroughly cleaned and dried before and after use to prevent residues from mixing with other pigments. Use lint-free cloth or special cleaning cloth to wipe the tool to prevent fibers or dust from contaminating the pigment.
Hygiene of the operating area. The operating area for taking pigments should be kept clean to prevent dust and other contaminants from entering the pigment container. Clean the operating table and storage area regularly to keep the environment clean.
Use disposable gloves. Wear disposable gloves during operation to prevent sweat or grease from contaminating the pigment. Replace new gloves each time you take a different pigment.
Sealing the container. Seal the container immediately after taking the pigment to prevent impurities and moisture in the air from entering.
Do not open the pigment container for a long time.
Labels and logos. Clearly label the contents of each container to avoid taking the wrong color. Check the label when taking to ensure that the correct tools and containers are used.
Avoid contact. Avoid direct contact with the paint with your hands, use tools to take and handle. Prevent tools or gloves from directly contacting the openings of multiple paint containers.
Operate independently. Operate only one paint at a time, and then take the next paint after it is completed.
Avoid opening multiple paint containers at the same time to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
