Quality Control

Our 1,1,1-Tris(2-Cyanoethyl)Nitromethane is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for research and development applications. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing key parameters such as identity, purity, and impurity profiles. Our quality system is designed to meet the stringent requirements of advanced chemical synthesis.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to the presence of nitromethane and nitrile groups, it should be stored separately from strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, and strong bases.
