Quality Control

Our 1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorooctyl Iodide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR), to ensure high purity and consistent performance. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications and support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be amber-colored or stored in dark conditions.
