Quality Control

Our Cyclohexyl 1,1,2,2-Tetrafluoroethyl Ether is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and Karl Fischer titration, to ensure it meets the required specifications for purity and identity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

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 when not in use to prevent evaporation and potential concentration changes. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability, though short-term storage at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) is acceptable.
