Quality Control

Our 3,3,3-Trifluoro-2,2-Bis(Trifluoromethyl)Propanoyl Fluoride is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and FTIR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our customers in regulated industries.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong bases, alcohols, and oxidizers.
