Quality Control

Our Holmium(III) 2,4-pentanedionate is manufactured under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay (holmium content), purity verification by HPLC, and trace metal analysis, to ensure it meets exacting standards for high-purity applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

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 tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation.
