Quality Assurance and Storage
We adhere to rigorous quality control standards to ensure every batch meets international specifications. Each shipment is accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA) verifying purity and physical properties. Due to its reactive nature as an acyl chloride, proper handling is essential. The product is moisture-sensitive and may decompose upon contact with water, releasing hydrogen chloride gas. Therefore, it is packaged in nitrogen-flushed containers to maintain stability. Storage should be in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, strictly separated from oxidizing agents, acids, and alkalis. Under recommended conditions, the shelf life extends up to 12 months. Our global logistics network ensures safe and timely delivery for bulk industrial requirements.
