Quality Control

Our 1,1,1,7,7,7-Hexafluoro-2,6-Dihydroxy-2,6-Bis(Trifluoromethyl)heptan-4-One is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key specifications, and our quality systems support traceability for all materials. For customers with specific purity requirements (e.g., >98% HPLC), custom synthesis and purification options are available.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents.
