Quality Control

Our iso-Propylidenecycloheptane is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. All materials undergo rigorous analytical testing, including GC, GC-MS, and NMR, to confirm identity and purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

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 kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and concentration changes. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
