Quality Control

Our 1,2-Dichloro-1-Fluoroethylene is produced under stringent quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including Gas Chromatography (GC) and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistent composition. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications. We support custom synthesis and purification to meet specific project requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources, ignition points, and incompatible materials such as strong bases and alkali metals. Due to its highly volatile nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed and upright. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for extended stability. Keep under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) if specified for the grade.
