Quality Control

Every batch of Octahydro-1,6-Bis(Hydroxymethyl)-4,7-Methano-1H-Indene-2,5-Diyl Diacrylate undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets stringent purity and performance specifications. Our quality management system is designed to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for your critical formulations. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at temperatures between 15-25°C (59-77°F). This product is light-sensitive and easily oxidized; for long-term storage, maintaining an inert atmosphere (e.g., under nitrogen) is recommended to preserve stability and prevent polymerization. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
