Quality Control

Our 1',2',2'-Trifluorostyrene is produced and handled under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment. We support compliance with relevant global regulatory frameworks, and specifications can be tailored to meet specific project or pharmacopeial requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed and upright to prevent loss and minimize vapor formation. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents and bases.
