Quality Control

Our 2-(2'-Octenyl)Succinic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, identification, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications and consistent high purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided as a standard commitment to supply chain transparency and reliability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent, ensure the container is clearly labeled and stored separately from bases, oxidizing agents, and reactive metals.
