Quality Control

Our Fema 2079 is produced and tested under strict quality management systems to ensure consistency and purity for flavor and fragrance applications. Each batch is analyzed to confirm identity, strength, and the absence of undesirable impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (typically ≥98% by GC), specific gravity, refractive index, and organoleptic properties is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) and minimize headspace in opened containers to preserve quality and prevent degradation.
