Quality Control

Our Chloric Acid is manufactured under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by titration and impurity profiling, to meet exacting customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, concentration, and key physical-chemical parameters are provided with every shipment and are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct heat and incompatible materials such as organic compounds, reducing agents, and strong bases. Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent and being easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere), it is recommended to handle and store under appropriate conditions to maintain stability. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture.
