Quality Control

Our Lithium (1-Methylethyl)Naphthalenesulphonate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure consistent purity and performance. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, moisture content, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the material must be stored in a cool, dry place with minimal humidity exposure. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and potential caking.
