Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be kept under an inert atmosphere or in a desiccator for long-term storage to prevent oxidation and hydrolysis.
