Quality Control

Our Furfuryl Isocyanate 97 is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is analyzed using advanced techniques like GC and HPLC to verify the assay and impurity profile. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and specific tests is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under a dry inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to prevent degradation. Keep away from heat, open flames, and incompatible materials such as alcohols, amines, and water.
