Quality Control

Our cis-2,5-Dimethyl-3-Hexene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your research and production specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Recommended storage temperature: 2-8°C.
