Quality Control

Our Tetrakis(Octadecylthio)Tetrathiafulvalene is produced and handled under strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research and development purposes. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques, including NMR, HPLC, and elemental analysis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and specific properties is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its nature of being easily oxidized, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) is recommended. Store at room temperature (15-25°C) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
