Quality Control

Our Heptadecafluorononanoic Acid Isopropyl Ester is manufactured under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and key physical parameters are provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong alkalis. Recommended storage temperature is 2-25°C. The container must be kept tightly sealed due to the compound's sensitivity to moisture (hygroscopic).
