Quality Control

Our Rac-Ethylenebis(4,5,6,7-Tetrahydro-1-Indenyl)Zirconium Dichloride undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards for catalyst-grade materials. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques to confirm identity, purity, and performance suitability. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific batch results are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, this material should be stored under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Handle and store away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizers.
