Quality Control

Our production of Perfluoro(2,3-Dimethyl-4-Oxaheptan-2-Ol) adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, NMR, and FTIR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment. We support compliance with global regulatory frameworks, including REACH, and can tailor purity grades to meet specific research or industrial requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids, strong bases, and oxidizing agents. Due to the potential for hygroscopicity, containers should be kept tightly sealed when not in use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture.
