Quality Control

Our Bromochlorofluoromethane is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including Gas Chromatography (GC) for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the stringent requirements of our industrial and research clients. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with agreed specifications.

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 upright and sealed when not in use. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C (36-46°F) to minimize vapor pressure and maintain stability.
