Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized nature, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C to maximize shelf-life stability. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent degradation from moisture and air.
