Quality Control

Our Dihexanoic Acid Magnesium Salt is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and compliance with your requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
