Quality Control

Our Tris(Methylcyclopentadienyl)Gadolinium (Iii) is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay and trace metal analysis, to meet the specified 98% purity with 99.9% gadolinium content. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all quality parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its properties of being easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere) and hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive), this material must be stored under a dry, inert gas such as argon or nitrogen. Recommended storage temperature is between 2°C and 8°C to maintain long-term stability. Handle and open containers only in a controlled, moisture-free environment.
