Quality Control

Our Tris(iso-Propylcyclopentadienyl) Lutetium is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including NMR and elemental analysis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is moisture-sensitive (hygroscopic) and easily oxidized; ensure containers are sealed immediately after use to minimize exposure to air and humidity.
