Quality Control

Our Menhaden Oil Alkyd Resin is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing for critical parameters such as acid value, viscosity, color, and solids content to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). This material is easily oxidized; prolonged storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen blanket) is recommended for optimal shelf life. Keep away from heat sources and open flames.
