Quality Control

Our Tris(2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoropropoxy)Borane is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay by NMR or titration, identity confirmation by FT-IR, and quantification of key impurities. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, physical properties, and safety data are provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, this material should be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C. Keep away from strong bases and fluorides.
