Quality Control

Every batch of 1,2-Bis(Epoxybutyl)Carborane is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Our products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency suitable for demanding R&D and industrial applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and key parameters is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation by atmospheric moisture.
