Quality Control

Our Potassium Sodium Adipate is manufactured under a quality management system. The product undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets relevant specifications for its intended use, including potential compliance with food-grade (FCC) or pharmaceutical standards. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, identity, and other critical parameters is available for every batch upon request.

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). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to caking or degradation.
