Quality Control

Every batch of 2-(Hydroxymethyl)-2-(N,2,4,6-Tetranitroanilino)-1,3-Propanediol Trinitrate is manufactured and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure consistency, purity, and safety for research applications. Our products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy, to verify identity and assay. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurities, and physical characteristics is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area dedicated for energetic materials, away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible substances. Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) is recommended to maintain stability. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition.
