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 easily oxidized; containers must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to air and moisture. Store away from incompatible materials such as combustible organics, strong reducing agents, and acids.
