Quality Control

Our 2,2,2-Trichloroethyl Dichlorophosphate is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure high purity and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents. Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to maintain product integrity. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
