Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its properties as a strong oxidizer and being strictly light-sensitive, it must be isolated from reducing agents, combustible materials, and strong acids. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C to maintain stability. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use.
