Storing terpenes

Hello
Can terpenes be stored in a glass syringe with a rubber plunger? Will anything bad happen if they are stored for a long time?

Not a brilliant idea imo.

Read of isoprene.

It is the major building block for “rubber” and “terpenes”.

Or dig a little…

As @cyclopath guided you towards, do not use rubber.

Instead, you can use all glass syringes

For a jar you can place one of these between the glass and the lid.

To add to the good comments above, better keep them in a freezer (-30c). Use glass containers with chemical resistant rubber seal.

Can terpenes be safely stored in an aluminum bottle?

That’s certainly how these folks ship them… https://eybna.com/
