Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, containers should be purged with inert gas after each opening.
