Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent derivative and its sensitivity to moisture, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent hydrolysis and degradation. Keep away from heat, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents.
