Quality Control

Our Allyl Sorbate is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for industrial and research applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee supply reliability and product consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). Due to its properties of being easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
