Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed in a desiccated environment to prevent absorption of water. For long-term storage, consider conditions under an inert atmosphere.
