Quality Control

Every batch of 4-Oxononan-1-Al is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing, including chromatographic purity analysis, to ensure compliance with industry standards and customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its properties of being easily oxidized and highly volatile, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
