Quality Control

Every batch of 2,4,6-Trihydroxybenzenecarbodithioic Acid is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We ensure product integrity through comprehensive analytical methods including HPLC, NMR, and titration to verify identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment and is available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
