Quality Control

Our 2-(Perfluorobutyl)Ethyl Acrylate is manufactured under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including Gas Chromatography (GC) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), to ensure high purity and consistent performance. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at temperatures between 15-25°C (59-77°F). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its reactivity, store separately from strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. For long-term storage under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen, please contact our technical team for specific recommendations.
