Quality Control

Our Bis(Triphenylphosphine)Nickel(II) Chloride is manufactured under controlled conditions and undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high catalytic performance. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing key parameters such as purity, metal content, and spectroscopic identity. Our quality management system is designed to meet the stringent requirements of industrial and research applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to prevent decomposition.
