Quality Control

Our 3-Decyl-1,2-Dimethyl-1H-Imidazolium Tetrafluoroborate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and Karl Fischer titration, to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Consider storage under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation of quality.
