Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Each batch is controlled against strict specifications for parameters such as active content, pH, viscosity, and ionic character. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, providing full traceability and batch-specific data to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent caking or degradation due to moisture absorption. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
