Quality Control

Our Dichloro(Phenoxy)Aluminum is produced under stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized nature, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
