Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) or as specified on the label. Due to its sensitivity, this material should be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to minimize oxidation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. For long-term storage, consider storing at lower temperatures (e.g., -20°C).
