Quality Control

Our Iron, C6-19-Branched Carboxylate Naphthenate Complexes are manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch is tested to ensure consistent performance as a catalyst and additive. Key parameters such as iron content, viscosity, and solubility are rigorously controlled. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. This product is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider maintaining under an inert atmosphere. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C (59-77°F). Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and contamination.
