Quality Control

This material is certified by the Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements (IRMM), guaranteeing metrological traceability and stated property values with associated uncertainties. Each batch is accompanied by a certificate of analysis (COA) detailing the certified values, measurement methods, and expiration date. Our handling and distribution processes ensure the integrity of the certified values is maintained from production to your laboratory.

Storage

Preserve in the original, tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, minimize exposure to humidity and atmospheric moisture to prevent degradation and ensure the stability of the certified properties.
