Quality Control

Our 1,8-Cyclotetradecadiene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting all critical quality parameters. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our customers in regulated industries.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, containers should be purged with inert gas after each opening to maintain product integrity.
