Quality Control

Our Hydrochlorofluorocarbon-232 (HCFC-232) is produced and tested under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analysis to verify identity, purity, and conformance to agreed specifications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical properties.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong acids, bases, and reactive metals. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept upright and sealed when not in use to prevent loss and maintain purity. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C.
