Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizers and moisture sources.
