Quality Control

Our Nickel(II) Hexadecafluoroophthalocyanine is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, metal content, and impurity profiles are provided and available upon request. We are committed to meeting the stringent requirements of research and industrial applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed and stored in a dark environment to maintain stability and prevent degradation.
