Stability and Storage Conditions
Polyethylene glycol is hygroscopic and should be stored in sealed containers, such as glass, plastic, aluminum, or stainless steel containers, placed in a cool, dry place, avoiding direct sunlight as much as possible. Polyethylene glycol is a flammable liquid, so fire safety regulations should be followed during storage and handling. Keep away from open flames, heat sources, and oxidizers.
