Quality Control

Our (R)-(+)-1,2-Epoxynonane, 97 is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high enantiomeric purity. Each lot is subjected to rigorous analytical testing, including chiral HPLC or GC analysis, to verify identity, purity, and optical rotation. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided and can be tailored to meet specific customer requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and concentration changes. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
