Quality Control

Our Aluminium Dodecyl Sulphate is produced and tested under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch is analyzed to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and compliance with your formulation requirements.

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). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product performance and flow characteristics.
