Quality Control

Our n-(2-[2-Naphthyl]-2-Oxo-Ethyl)-N,N,n-Tributylammonium Tetraphenylborate is manufactured under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high chemical purity. Each lot is analyzed to confirm identity, potency, and the absence of critical impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (typically >97% by HPLC), physical characteristics, and spectroscopic data is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its ionic organic salt nature, protect from excessive moisture to prevent caking or degradation.
