Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) when not in use. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C. Allow the container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
