Quality Control

Our 1-Chloro-3,3,3-Trifluoro-Prop-1-Yne is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and Karl Fischer titration, to ensure it meets the high-purity standards required for sensitive synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available for every shipment upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its highly volatile nature and reactivity as a strong acid/organic solvent, it should be kept separate from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for extended stability.
