    You would need to post a Formulation in order to get a useful answer. Many ducts can cause precipitation. It is very Formula dependent.

    The theoretically correct answer would be: Instability or incompatibility causes this 😉 .
    As mentioned before, without a detailed composition, it’s impossible to guess what’s happening in your case.
