Quality Control

Our production of Butanoic Acid, 2-Nitro-, Anhydride With Hypofluorous Acid (9Ci) adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity for sensitive synthetic applications. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including NMR, IR, and HPLC to confirm identity and quantify purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, containers must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent decomposition. Keep away from heat, sparks, and incompatible materials such as strong bases and reducing agents.
