Quality Control

Our 1H,1H,1H,2H,2H-Nonafluorohexane is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC and NMR analysis, to ensure high chemical purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and key physical properties 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 away from heat sources and open flames. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept upright and sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and maintain purity. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
