Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from heat, open flames, and incompatible materials such as alcohols, amines, and strong bases.
