Polymax papers

[Hansraj Vyas]

I store my unused Polymax papers in the freezer. When needed, I take it out and use it after about six to seven hours. I observe that the emulsion side of the paper becomes sticky. The paper sticks to the fingers and when I fold it to cut into two, the folded emulsion sides stick so much that I almost pull them apart. Is something wrong? Regards, Hansraj.

Moisture is causing the stickiness. The trick to freezing anything is to seal it in a relatively airtight container and not opening that container until it has reached the ambient room temperature. Doing otherwise leads to condensation.

Dear Sir, Thanks for your prompt reply. I used to immediately open the sealed box after taking it out from the fridge, which was causing the problem. Regards, Hansraj.
