Quality Control

Every batch of our 2,2,3,3-Tetrafluorobutane-1,4-Diyl Bis(Trifluoromethanesulfonate) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. We provide comprehensive analytical documentation, including Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed results from HPLC, NMR, and GC-MS, to ensure consistent purity and identity for your critical R&D and production processes.

Storage

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