Quality Control

Our 1,12-Tridecadiene is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including Gas Chromatography (GC) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your research and manufacturing specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at 2-8°C under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to minimize oxidation and polymerization. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and contamination.
