Quality Control

Our Perfluoro-2,5-Dimethyl-3,6-Dioxanonanoic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including NMR (19F, 1H), FT-IR, and HPLC analysis, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all critical parameters are provided with every shipment. We support cGMP compliance for pharmaceutical applications and can tailor specifications to meet specific project requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is between 2°C and 25°C. Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent, handle with appropriate personal protective equipment and ensure containers are kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
