Quality Control

Our Tetrakis(Decyl)Ammonium Perchlorate is produced and tested under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analysis to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay, moisture content, and impurity profiles. We support compliance with relevant research and industrial standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials. Due to its hygroscopic and strong oxidizing nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition. Recommended storage temperature: 2-8°C for long-term stability.
