Quality Control

Our Strontium Hexachlorosilicate(2-) is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity and chemical identity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profiles, and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the material must be stored in a cool, dry place with minimal humidity fluctuation. For long-term stability, consider storage under an inert atmosphere or in a desiccator. The recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C in a well-ventilated area.
