Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, detailing key parameters such as purity, identity, and moisture content. We adhere to strict analytical protocols including NMR, HPLC, and elemental analysis to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability for your catalytic applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled in a moisture-free environment. Keep away from strong acids and incompatible organic solvents.
