Quality Control

Our Dicyclopentanyl Methacrylate is manufactured under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including gas chromatography (GC) for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets precise specifications for monomer content and inhibitor levels. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at 15-25°C. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Containers should be kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and maintain product integrity.
