Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at room temperature (15-25°C) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong acids, oxidizers, and moisture.
