Quality Control

Our Heptanickel Hexasulfide is produced and handled under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analysis to confirm identity, purity, and compositional integrity. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, detailing key parameters such as nickel and sulfur content, phase purity via XRD, and impurity levels.

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 for long-term storage to prevent oxidation or degradation. Keep away from strong acids and strong oxidizing agents.
