Quality Control

Our Biguanide Diperchlorate is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is assured through a rigorous analytical protocol including HPLC, titration, and spectroscopic methods. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality management systems.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as combustible organics, reducing agents, and strong bases. Due to its hygroscopic and strong oxidizing nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dedicated, secondary containment area. Recommended storage temperature: 15-25°C.
