Quality Control

Our Quaternary Ammonium Compounds are manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent composition, purity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as active matter content, chloride ion content, and pH are provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications and industry standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong oxidizing agents. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are properly sealed after use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
