Quality Control

Our Ceteareth-60 Myristyl Glycol is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as hydroxyl value, ethylene oxide content, and acid value are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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 product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product performance.
