Quality Control

Our 1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoro-4-Iodo-2-(Trifluoromethoxy)Pentane is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are available upon request. We support development projects requiring material that meets stringent internal specifications for trace impurities and isotopic content.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its properties as a strong acid/organic solvent and highly volatile nature, keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials. Use appropriate explosion-proof equipment. Containers should be kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and moisture ingress.
