Quality Control

Our Lithium 4-Cyano-2,6-Diiodo-Phenolate is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
