Quality Control

Our 1H-Indene-1,2-Diol, Octahydro- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for advanced synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data (HPLC/GC) are provided for every shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with your internal specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect purity and stability. For long-term storage, consider the use of desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
