Quality Control

Our Quaternary Ammonium Compounds are manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity, activity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, amine content, and moisture are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are sealed after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
