Quality Control

Our 1,3-Dimethyl-1H-Imidazol-3-Ium Tetrahydroborate is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including NMR and HPLC, to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available for all commercial and research quantities.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
