Quality Control

Our 3,7-Dimethylocta-1,5,7-Trien-3-Yl Acetate is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing including GC, IR, and NMR to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Recommended storage temperature: 2-8°C.
