Quality Control

Our Aluminum Sesquichlorohydrate is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure consistency and purity suitable for cosmetic and personal care applications. We adhere to relevant industry guidelines, and our quality assurance includes testing for key parameters such as aluminum and chloride content, pH, and loss on drying. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each batch to guarantee compliance with agreed specifications.

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). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
