Quality Control

Our (E)-8-Tetradecenyl Acetate is produced under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and isomer confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting identity, purity, and relevant physical parameters.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at 2-8°C to minimize oxidation and volatility. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. The container must be kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and moisture ingress.
