Quality Control

Our (3-Methylcyclohex-1-Enylmethyl)Trimethylsilane is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and Karl Fischer titration, to ensure it meets the specified 99% purity standard and is free from critical impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and assay results is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
