Quality Control

Our Argon36 is produced and handled under stringent quality protocols to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity. Each batch is analyzed using advanced techniques like high-resolution mass spectrometry to verify isotopic abundance and detect trace impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic purity, chemical assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and traceability for critical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed, high-pressure cylinder or container specifically designed for compressed gases, stored in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat and ignition sources. Due to its highly volatile and gaseous nature, cylinders must be secured to prevent tipping. Protect from physical damage and extreme temperature fluctuations.
