Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and flow characteristics.
