We are repackaging the left overs packages after use. Al cladded bags
with dessicator puches are used . staorage in nitrogen cabinet without
supply of nitrogen. Since wpg weather keeps floor humidity low, we have
not seen any case of popcorning on FPDs even with exposure over one
week.

We do respect the standards and are  planning to use nitrogen supply ,
however, nitrogen cylinders and associated problems with nitrogen
cylinders are major hinderances. I came across one vendor to supply dry
nitrogen generated from compressed air line. I am waiting for details.
Anybody using cylinderless nitrogen system for this application i.e.
storing MS component??
