Quality Control

Our Propanoic Acid, 2,3,3,3-Tetrafluoro-2-[1,1,2,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-(1,1,2,2,2-Pentafluoroethoxy)Propoxy]- is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including NMR, GC, and titration methods, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent, handle with appropriate personal protective equipment and ensure containers are kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture ingress or volatilization.
