Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture absorption and degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
