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 highly volatile. Containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere to prevent degradation and moisture uptake. Keep away from strong bases and incompatible materials.
