Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is light-sensitive and easily oxidized; prolonged exposure to air and light should be avoided. For long-term storage, consider an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
