Quality Control

Every batch of Allylnitrate is produced and tested under a stringent quality management system. We ensure compliance with relevant industry standards for fine chemicals and research materials. Key parameters including purity, identity, and impurity profiles are verified using advanced analytical techniques such as GC, HPLC, and NMR. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency for your critical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its properties of being easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere) and highly volatile, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C for long-term stability. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong reducing agents, strong bases, and sources of ignition.
