Quality Control

Every batch of our 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,8,8,8-Tetradecafluoro-7-(Trifluoromethyl)Octyl Fluoride is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We ensure high purity and consistent performance through advanced analytical techniques including GC, NMR, and FT-IR. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee it meets your specific application requirements and internal specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile nature, store in a cool, well-ventilated area, ideally at temperatures between 15-25°C (59-77°F). Keep away from strong bases and incompatible organic solvents. For long-term storage, consider using sealed containers under an inert atmosphere to maintain product integrity.
