Quality Control

Our Iron Chloride Oxide is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay and impurity profile determination. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, physical characteristics, and other critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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) and must be kept in a dry environment to prevent caking and degradation. Keep away from incompatible substances.
