Quality Control

Our production of Methyl Perfluoro-3,6,9-Trioxatridecanoate adheres to a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and 19F NMR, to ensure high purity and consistent performance. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and fluorides. The container must be kept tightly sealed due to potential moisture sensitivity.
