Quality Control

Our Potassium Phenoxy-Methyltrifluoroborate is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including NMR (1H, 11B, 19F) and HPLC analysis, to ensure high chemical purity and consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and reactivity. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
