Quality Control

Our Aluminum 1,8,15,22-Tetrakis(Phenylthio)phthalocyanine is produced under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and spectroscopic methods for structural confirmation. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all relevant specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability.
