Quality Control

Every batch of our Di-tert-Butylmethylphosphine Tetrafluoroborate is subjected to rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets the high-purity standards required for sensitive catalytic applications. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing key parameters such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles. Our quality management system is designed to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C. The container should be kept tightly sealed in a desiccator to prevent exposure to moisture and oxidation.
