Quality Control

Our Butane-1,2,3-Triyl Trinitrate is manufactured under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by HPLC, identification by FT-IR, and impurity profiling to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and industrial use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, physical properties, and test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat sources, sparks, and open flame. Due to its properties as a strong oxidizer, it must be segregated from combustible materials, reducing agents, and strong acids. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition.
