Quality Control

Our 1,1,1-Trifluoropropane is manufactured under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is analyzed against rigorous internal specifications, which typically include identity confirmation by GC/MS or FTIR, purity assay by gas chromatography, and quantification of key impurities. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile and gaseous nature, store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources, sparks, and open flame. Cylinders should be secured upright in a location with adequate ventilation. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent loss of product and ingress of moisture.
