Quality Control

Our Benzene, 1,3,5-Trimethyl-2-Nitro-, Radical Ion(1-) (9Ci) is produced and handled under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including spectroscopic identification (NMR, IR, MS) and purity assessment (HPLC, GC), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming identity, purity, and conformity to agreed specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and radical ion structure, prolonged exposure to light, air, or elevated temperatures should be avoided to maintain stability and purity. Keep away from incompatible materials.
