Quality Control

Our 1-Chloro-1,2,2-Trifluoro-Ethane is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including gas chromatography (GC) for purity and identity verification, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources, ignition points, and incompatible materials such as strong bases and reactive metals. Due to its high volatility, 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.
