EBFA should be stored in a cool, dry environment, away from moisture and direct sunlight to maintain its chemical integrity. It is recommended to use airtight containers made of materials that are chemically inert, such as glass or high-density polyethylene, to prevent contamination and degradation. Due to its reactivity, it is important to handle EBFA with appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves and safety goggles, to minimize exposure. In laboratory settings, it should be kept in a well-ventilated area to ensure safe handling. All procedures involving EBFA should be conducted in a fume hood to reduce the risk of inhalation. Proper labeling of storage containers is essential to ensure safe access and usage.
