Quality Control

Our 1-Chloroethyl Isopropyl Carbonate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and GC for residual solvent analysis, to ensure it meets exacting standards for use as a fine chemical intermediate. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
