Quality Control

Our Bromodichlorodifluoropropane is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including gas chromatography (GC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong acids, bases, and reactive metals. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept upright and sealed when not in use. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
