Quality Control

Our 1,1,2,2-Tetrafluoro-1-(2-Methoxyethoxy)Ethane is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC and NMR analysis, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all critical specifications. Our quality commitment ensures the material meets the stringent requirements for research, development, and industrial synthesis.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are properly sealed when not in use. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability, though short-term storage at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) is acceptable.
