Quality Control

Our Tri-sec-Butyl Borate is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, identity confirmation, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your research and production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
