Quality Control

Our Acetyl Chloride, Hydroxy- (9Ci) is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, purity verification, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to maintain stability and prevent moisture absorption. Keep away from strong bases and oxidizing agents.
