Quality Control

Our Erbium Tris[3-(Trifluoromethylhydroxymethylene)-(+)-Camphorate] is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high analytical performance. Each lot undergoes rigorous testing, including chiral purity and metal content analysis, to meet the exacting standards required for NMR spectroscopy. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, specific rotation, and spectroscopic data is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) when possible to prevent oxidation and moisture uptake. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use.
