Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its properties of being easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere) and highly volatile, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert gas blanket when not in use and away from heat and ignition sources. Keep away from incompatible materials.
