Quality Control

Our 1-Bromo-3,3,4,4-Tetrafluorohexane is produced under stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopy (NMR, IR), to ensure high purity and consistent composition. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting identity, assay, and impurity profiles to support your quality and regulatory requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and concentration changes. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
