If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?
1 answer-
Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

How should cleaning and handling be done in working environment where sodium cyanoborohydride is used, is there a critical interaction with other chemicals? What is the level of risk of leakage into the working environment?
1 answer-
The following information can be found on the product Safety Data Sheet: Work under hood. Do not inhale substance/mixture. Keep workplace dry. Do not allow product to come into contact with water.
Store tightly closed. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Keep locked up or in an area accessible only to qualified or authorized persons. Never allow product to get in contact with water during storage. Do not store near acids.
Over time, pressure may increase causing containers to burst hygroscopic Handle and store under inert gas.The level of risk of leakage into the working environment has not been determined. Please consult with local or institutional environmental, health, and/or safety departments for site-specific handling. See the link below to review the product Safety Data Sheet for any additional information: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/sds/aldrich/156159

Does Product 156159, Sodium Cyanoborohydride, typically have an odor?
1 answer-
Sodium cyanoborohydride may have an unusual odor due to production steps. It is our belief that this odor is the result of trace amounts of volatile organosulfur compounds which are present as a result of a new manufacturing process. While this odor may be unpleasant, we are confident the impurity is present at such a low level that it will not affect the performance of this reagent for most applications. If the odor persists in the waste streams following use of this reagent, it can be removed by treating these mixtures with aqueous bleach. In regards to the hazards of the volatile organosulfur compounds, these compounds have a very strong odor which would cause you to remove yourself from the compound's presence much sooner than you would begin to suffer affects from toxicity of these compounds; however, this is research grade material and you should be handling it properly (according to MSDS). The sodium cyanoborohydride itself is a bigger safety concern than the small amounts of organosulfur impurities present in this product.

Why is it recommended to store and handle Product 156159, Sodium Cyanoborohydride, under an inert atmosphere?
1 answer-
Sodium Cyanoborohydride is a very hygroscopic material and contact with water or moist air should be avoided. Allowing the material to come into contact with water or moist air may decompose the material and could lead to a violent reaction or explosion due to the release of Hydrogen gas.
