Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment. For long-term storage, consider maintaining the material under an inert atmosphere such as argon or nitrogen to prevent oxidation.
