Quality Control

Our Ammonium Hexacosyl Sulphate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, assay, and key impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture and caking.
