Quality Control

Our production of Dodecyl(Sulphophenoxy)Benzenesulphonic Acid, Ammonium Salt adheres to stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Each lot is analyzed against comprehensive specifications, including assay, moisture content, and ionic composition. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results are provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product performance and flow characteristics.
