Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as reducing agents, organic substances, and strong acids. Due to its nature as an easily oxidized material, it is recommended to minimize headspace and consider storage under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use.
