Quality Control

Our Erbium167 is produced and handled under stringent quality protocols to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity. Each batch is characterized using high-precision analytical techniques such as Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and Glow Discharge Mass Spectrometry (GDMS). A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic abundance, elemental purity, and trace metal content is provided with every shipment to guarantee consistency and reliability for your critical 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). For long-term storage of the metal form, maintaining an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon) is recommended to prevent surface oxidation.
