Quality Control

Our Nickel Telluride is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is analyzed for key metallic impurities and phase composition. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, physical characteristics, and trace element content is provided with every shipment to meet the stringent requirements of 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 handled under an inert atmosphere such as argon or nitrogen for long-term storage to prevent oxidation.
