Rodinal version with best shelf life

Unopened.
Unknown age (but pre Gevaert fusion).
Brown glass bottle with a beautiful bakelite cap. The cap was shrink wrapped in some “cellophane” like material which crumbled to dust when I touched it.
The content is completely crystallized.

I wonder if I should move my Adox Rodinal to a glass bottle. So far I've kept it in its original plastic bottle.

All I can say is that I bought the original Agfa Rodinal in 2005. It had been reduced in price a little as the shop was trying to clear out older stock. It was and still is in its original white plastic bottle. I used it a couple of months ago and it worked fine

Thanks. That's an impressive shelf life. I'll leave my Adox one in the original bottle then.
