Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to the presence of nitrile groups, which may be moisture-sensitive, the container should be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage to maintain product integrity.
