Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container must be kept tightly sealed to exclude moisture and prevent degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents, strong bases, and strong acids.
