Quality Control

Our Carbonic Acid, Aluminum Magnesium Salt, Basic is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise compositional and purity standards relevant for pharmaceutical and industrial applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, heavy metal content, and loss on drying is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be kept in a dry environment to prevent caking and degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong acids.
