Quality Control

Our Chlorodihydrotris(Triphenylphosphine)Iridium is produced and handled under strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high catalytic performance. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and other critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance and research documentation.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its sensitivity to light and oxygen, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place is strongly recommended to maintain stability and catalytic activity. Store at room temperature (15-25°C).
