Quality Control

Our Chlorinated Paraffin is manufactured under strict process controls to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Quality is verified through comprehensive testing of key parameters including chlorine content, viscosity, color, and acid value. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these specifications are provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong acids and organic solvents. Ideal storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Keep containers tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and maintain product integrity.
