Ammonia storage
I got 5ltr Ammonia arrive, its wrapped up like a mummy in black wrap, alarm bells went off and i undid some the wrap. The container looks like milk
bottle plastic, and its already a bit white!!
Had i known it was going to be sent like this I wouldnt have got so much. 5Ltr is kind of alot to find storage for, whats best to store it in? The
strength is 27% Ammonia according to the label.
Could i seal up empty wine bottles for now? The only good thing is my lab is literally colder than the fridge!

That would probably also work. Looking at this chart of compatibility I have, ammonia is not actually that hard to store.
