I would add that the expiration date, while often largely
arbitrary, is the date after which the manufacturer or supplier is going to
reject any legal responsibility connected with use or misuse of the
material. So if your use is ever likely to be assessed or discussed in a legal
or adversarial situation, you probably do NOT want to use anything beyond the
expiration date - unless, perhaps, you have comprehensive testing
results showing that the item is not impacted by age deterioration at the time
you are using it.
