Optical and chemical stability studies were performed for a Gd-doped liquid scintillator synthesized for using in a prototype of industrial reactor antineutrino detector iDREAM. It is shown that the scintillator solution 1.1 m3 in volume remains stable for two years of observations provided the temperature is kept below ~ 20oC and contact with air is prevented. Keywords: neutrino detector, liquid scintillator, reactor antineutrino. DOI: 10.61011/TPL.2023.08.56682.19627
