Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Each batch is characterized for critical parameters including monomer content, molecular weight distribution, and hydroxyl value to guarantee consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing these specifications are available upon request. Our manufacturing follows a quality management system to ensure traceability and reliability for our global B2B clients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat sources and open flame. Under these conditions, the product is typically stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture. For long-term storage, an inert atmosphere (nitrogen blanket) is recommended to prevent potential oxidation.
