Quality Control

Our Mercarbide is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by titration and identification by spectroscopic methods, to confirm its identity and meet stringent specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, the container should be opaque or stored in a dark place.
