Quality Control

Our Erbium164 is produced and handled under stringent conditions to ensure the highest isotopic and chemical purity. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including 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 material integrity for sensitive 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 metal forms, maintaining an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon) is recommended to prevent surface oxidation.
