Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product quality and stability. Keep away from incompatible materials.
