Quality Control

Our Cesium Perfluoroheptanoate is manufactured under stringent quality management systems. Each batch is subjected to rigorous analytical testing, including NMR, FT-IR, and ICP-MS, to ensure identity, purity, and the absence of critical metallic impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment to guarantee consistency and compliance with your research or production specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. The container must be kept tightly sealed due to the hygroscopic nature of the material.
