Quality Control

Our cis-3-Methyl-3-Hexene is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including Gas Chromatography (GC) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, to ensure high chemical purity and identity confirmation. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and traceability for your critical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its highly volatile nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed and under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) when not in use to prevent evaporation and degradation. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
