Quality Control

Our Ethanol is produced and tested under a stringent quality management system to ensure it meets the highest standards for purity and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each batch, detailing key parameters such as assay, water content, and impurity profiles. The product can be manufactured to comply with various pharmacopeial standards (e.g., USP, EP, BP) or ACS reagent grade specifications based on customer requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep containers tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and maintain purity. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
