Quality Control

Our Oxiranecarbonyl Chloride, Trichloro- (9Ci) is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high-purity standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for extended stability.
