Quality Control

Our 1-Chloro-1-Iodotetrafluoroethane is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC (Gas Chromatography) and NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) analysis, to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong bases and reactive metals. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept upright and sealed when not in use. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C to maximize stability.
