Note that bottles of NaOH should be capped so as to avoid as much exposure to the air as possible. This is because NaOH reacts with CO2CO<sub>2</sub> in the air, causing the NaOH to become inaccurate as a base titration overtime <ref>[https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2405656116300578 A novel rate of the reaction between NaOH with CO<sub>2</sub> at low temperature in spray dryer.
