Quality Control

Our 1-Propanesulfinic Acid, 2,2-Dimethyl-, Sodium Salt (1:1) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical quality parameters are available upon request 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 a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to maintain stability and purity. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
