Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). This material is light-sensitive (store away from light) and easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. For long-term storage, consider an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to minimize oxidation.
