Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile and hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, this reagent must be stored under a dry, inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, well-ventilated area. For optimal stability and to minimize decomposition, storage at recommended cold chain conditions (typically 2-8°C) is advised. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as water, acids, and oxidizing agents.
