Quality Control

Our C60 Derivatives are produced and controlled under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as purity (by HPLC), functional group loading, and spectral identification are provided with every shipment to support your research and quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is light-sensitive and easily oxidized; prolonged exposure to air and light should be avoided to maintain stability.
