Quality Control

Our Lithium Tetra(8-Hydroxyquinolinato)Borate is produced under stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity, essential for sensitive electronic applications. Each lot is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles. We adhere to relevant industry standards and can support compliance documentation for research and development purposes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation and moisture absorption. Handle and store away from incompatible materials.
