Quality Control

Every batch of our acrylic copolymer is produced under a stringent quality management system. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) that detail key parameters such as solid content, viscosity, acid value, and glass transition temperature (Tg). Our quality protocols are designed to ensure batch-to-batch consistency, meeting the precise requirements of industrial applications. Certificates of Analysis are available upon request for all shipments.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C / 59-77°F). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its polymer nature in a strong acid/organic solvent system, ensure containers are sealed to prevent solvent evaporation and moisture ingress.
