Properties, Storage, and Cautions
Silicon nanoparticles are highly reactive, requiring careful handling to avoid oxidation, agglomeration, or degradation. Avoid rapid movements, vibrations, and impacts. Keep away from heat, moisture, and sunlight. For long-term stability, store sealed under vacuum or in an inert atmosphere in a cool, dry place.
