Quality Control

Our Titanium(III) Oxide is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through a suite of analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD) for phase identification and spectroscopic methods for impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific lot results is provided with each shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be kept under an inert atmosphere such as argon or nitrogen for long-term storage to prevent oxidation. Keep away from strong acids and strong oxidizing agents.
