Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed and consideration should be given to storage under an inert atmosphere or with desiccant for long-term preservation to maintain stability and purity.
