Quality Control

Our Vinyl 3-Chloro-2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoropropionate undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards for high-purity intermediates. We employ advanced analytical techniques including GC, HPLC, and NMR to verify identity, purity, and impurity profiles. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids, organic solvents, fluorides, and strong alkalis. The container must be kept tightly closed in a dry and inert atmosphere to minimize moisture absorption and degradation.
