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 easily oxidized and should be handled and stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to maintain stability and prevent degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
