I don't understand if oxygen itself makes sn turn into nitrate, or is it more like oxygen + moisture? I read that some people use stuff like oxygen absorbers, is it really necessary? Previously I thought that only high humidity would destroy sn, not just air itself... Here's why I'm asking this:
I transferred sn from the manufacturer's plastic bottle to a glass one (just a usual bottle like cough syrup) then vacuum sealed it (with my cheap vacuum sealer, I hope it's enough), wrapped it in another foil bag and vacuum sealed again. The problem is, my glass bottle was only half-filled with the sn. Which means that the content of the bottle is ~50℅ sn and ~50℅ air. Should I worry about sn degrading due to reaction with oxygen?
