Quality Control

Our Inositol Hexaphosphoric Acid Dipotassium Salt is produced under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets stringent specifications for identity, purity, and composition. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, heavy metals, and loss on drying are available upon request. We can support compliance requirements for various application standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or degradation.
