Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C to minimize oxidation and volatility. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed and only opened in a controlled environment.
