Quality Control

Our 4-Pentene-1,1,2,4-Tetrol (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for research and industrial synthesis. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopic methods. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture absorption and potential degradation. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C.
