Quality Control

Our 4,5,5,6,6,6-Hexafluoro-4-(Trifluoromethyl)Hex-2-Ene is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, GC-MS, NMR, and Karl Fischer titration, to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles 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, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed and upright to prevent loss and minimize vapor release. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability, though short-term storage at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) is acceptable.
