Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Each batch is characterized to confirm identity and purity, with key parameters including ruthenium content, chloride content, and the absence of significant metallic impurities. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications and test results (e.g., by ICP-OES, NMR, elemental analysis) are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C to minimize decomposition. This material is hygroscopic and sensitive to oxidation; ensure containers are sealed immediately after use to exclude moisture and air.
