Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect purity and reactivity. For long-term storage, consider using a desiccator.
