Quality Control

Our 3-Bromo-3-heptene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and purity assays, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place, away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed and upright to minimize evaporation and pressure build-up. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for extended stability.
