Quality Control

Our production of 1-Butyl-2,3-Dimethylimidazolium Hexafluoroantimonate adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high performance. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including NMR, HPLC, and ICP-MS to verify identity, purity, and low levels of critical impurities such as halides and metals. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition.
