Quality Control

Every batch of 3-(Dichlorophenylsilyl)Propiononitrile is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency through rigorous analytical protocols including GC, HPLC, and NMR. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and reacts with strong acids/organic solvents; keep the container tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to prevent hydrolysis and maintain stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
