Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be kept in a dry environment to prevent caking or decomposition. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong reducing agents and combustible organics.
