Quality Control

Our 1-Methoxy-1,3-Bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadiene is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by GC or HPLC, identity confirmation (IR, NMR), and impurity profiling to ensure high purity and consistent performance. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
