Quality Control

Our Oxybis(Dibutylborane) is manufactured under strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including NMR and GC analysis, to verify identity and assay. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all quality parameters is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed and away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
