Quality Control

Our production of Dizinc Magnesium adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analysis to verify chemical composition, phase purity, and physical characteristics such as particle size distribution (for powders). Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing lot-specific results are provided to ensure traceability and compliance with your technical requirements. We support custom specifications for research and industrial applications.

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 moisture-sensitive (hygroscopic) and should be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) for long-term storage to prevent surface oxidation. Keep away from strong acids and strong oxidizing agents.
