Quality Control

Our Lithium Tetra(2-Methyl-8-hydroxyquinolinato) Boron is produced under controlled conditions to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency, critical for sensitive electronic applications. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and ICP-MS for trace metal analysis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, store under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C. Allow the sealed container to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
