Quality Control

Our Pentaborane(9),1-Iodo- is produced and handled under stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. All products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including NMR, GC-MS, and elemental analysis, to verify identity and composition. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your research and quality assurance requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its properties of being easily oxidized and highly volatile, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials.
