Compound Q&A
How should Patchouli alcohol (CAS: 5986-55-0) be stored?
Answer
Patchouli alcohol should be stored in a cool, dark place (ideally below 25°C) to maintain stability and prevent degradation. It is sensitive to light and heat, so airtight containers made of glass or HDPE are recommended. Storage conditions should avoid high humidity and direct sunlight. Proper labeling and secure containment are essential to ensure safety and preserve its chemical integrity over time.
