To safely and effectively store trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) CAS 76-05-1.

1. Use a sealed container made of a material that is compatible with strong acids and organic solvents, such as glass or certain types of fluoropolymer containers. Make sure the container is designed for chemical storage.

2. Please store TFA CAS 76-05-1 in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight, heat sources and incompatible substances. The ideal storage place is a dedicated chemical storage cabinet.

3. Store this product at controlled room temperature, ideally between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures as this will affect the stability of the product.

4. When not in use, ensure that the container remains tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption and contamination. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and lab coats when handling this material.

5. Clearly label containers with contents, hazard warnings, and storage dates.

6. Regularly inspect storage areas and containers for signs of leaks, damage or degradation.

7. Have appropriate spill control materials and safety equipment (e.g., fire extinguishers and eyewash stations) available in storage areas.

8. Please dispose of trifluoroacetic acid CAS 76-05-1 and any waste generated during its use in accordance with local regulations.
