Quality Control

Our Indenylzirconium(IV) Trichloride 97 is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including NMR and elemental analysis, to confirm identity and assay. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, moisture content, and other critical parameters is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive nature, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Handle and open containers only in a controlled, moisture-free environment such as a glovebox.
