Quality Control

Our 1,2,3,4,7,7-Hexafluorobicyclo[2.2.1]Hept-2-Ene is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and FTIR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided and can be tailored to meet specific customer or regulatory requirements.

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 and organic solvents. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed and upright to prevent leakage and concentration of vapors. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
