Quality Control

Our Magnesium Azide is manufactured under strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay by titration and identification by FT-IR spectroscopy. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, moisture content, and other critical parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as reducing agents, acids, and combustible substances. Due to its nature as a strong oxidizer, it must be kept separate from organic materials and sources of heat or ignition. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C.
