Quality Control

Our Tetrafluoro-2-(Heptafluoro-1-Propoxy)Propanoyl Chloride is manufactured under strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through comprehensive analytical testing including NMR, FT-IR, and GC-MS. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and reactive acid chloride nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture ingress and decomposition. Keep away from strong bases, oxidizers, and sources of ignition.
