Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C (refrigerated) to minimize decomposition and maintain stability. Due to its highly volatile and strictly light-sensitive nature, containers must be kept sealed and handled under inert atmosphere when possible. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials.
