Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. As an amine compound, it is hygroscopic and should be protected from excessive moisture. Containers should be kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of carbon dioxide and water from the atmosphere.
