Quality Control

Our production of Butanamide, 2,2,3,3,4,4,4-Heptafluoro-n-(Phenylmethyl)- adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and NMR/IR for structural confirmation, to ensure consistency and meet precise customer specifications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
