Quality Control

Our Sodium 1-Hydroxy-3,7-Dimethyloct-6-Ene-1-Sulphonate is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity, performance, and compliance with relevant industry standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profile, and physical specifications is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or degradation.
