Quality Control

Our Octadec-2-Enylsuccinic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, acid value, and color is provided with every shipment to guarantee it meets your specific technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at 15-25°C. This material is a strong acid/organic solvent and is easily oxidized; it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability and to minimize contact with moisture and oxidizing agents.
