Quality Control

Our production of Poly[(Acrylic Acid, Partial Sodium Salt)-Co-(Acrylic Acid Butyl Ester)-Co-(Dodecane-1- Thiol)] adheres to a stringent quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous testing to ensure consistent performance, including analysis of monomer conversion, molecular weight distribution, and ionic content. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture uptake. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere to minimize potential oxidation.
