* Static Evaporation Rate and static holding times are nominal.
Actual rate and holding time will be affected by the nature of container
use, atmospheric conditions, and manufacturing tolerances.
** Normal Working Duration is an arbitrary reference to estimate container
performance under normal operating conditions. Actual working time
may vary due to current atmospheric conditions, container history,
manufacturing tolerances and any individual patterns of use.
