Quality Control

Our 1,4-Bis(Heptafluoroisopropyl)Benzene is manufactured under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, NMR, and FTIR, to ensure high purity and consistent lot-to-lot quality. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) specifying identity, assay, and impurity profiles is 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 room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong bases and sources of ignition. Due to its fluoride/strong alkali chemical property, ensure it is stored separately from incompatible materials.
