Description
HIGH-PURITY SPECIALTY INGREDIENT
Nervonic acid (cis-15-tetracosenoic acid)
Nervonic acid (cis-15-tetracosenoic acid) is supplied as a high-purity B2B raw material at 95.0%. This grade is produced to a declared purity with controlled identity, residual solvents and heavy metals, and is released against a batch-specific COA. It is intended for further processing by the buyer or for use as a reference material in development work; it is not a finished consumer product.

Buyer Decision Guide
Buyers approving Nervonic acid (cis-15-tetracosenoic acid) normally agree four points before the first order: the assay method and acceptance range, the identity and isomeric form, the residual solvent limits applicable to the destination market, and the physical form required by the buyer’s process. Confirm these at enquiry stage so the shipment is released to the right specification.
- Assay: 95.0% by GC, released batch by batch against the current COA.
- Identity: confirmed by the analytical methods stated in the specification table above.
- Residual solvents and heavy metals: reported per batch and reviewed against the destination market’s limits.
- Physical form: powder as standard; packaging and particle size agreed against the buyer’s process.
- Documentation: COA, specification sheet and safety data sheet accompany each shipment.
- Regulatory status, permitted uses and labelling requirements are the buyer’s responsibility for the destination market.
How This Grade Differs
Nervonic acid (cis-15-tetracosenoic acid) is often quoted alongside materials of the same or a closely related name at a different purity or in a different form. The two are not interchangeable: purity, residual solvent profile and physical form all change the buyer’s processing yield. Compare quotations on the released assay and the reported impurity profile, not on the headline percentage alone.

Frequently Asked Questions
What assay does Nervonic Acid Powder 95% carry on the certificate of analysis?
Assay 95.0%, determined by GC.
What physical form does Nervonic Acid Powder 95% ship in?
Fine white waxy powder, milled to 98% through 80 mesh.
What shelf life and storage conditions apply?
Two years when stored properly, kept sealed in a dry place away from light and heat.
How is lot traceability handled?
Each lot keeps batch records and a retained sample, and the certificate for LXGZ260611 carries the same batch reference used in the quotation.
What do you declare for moisture and ash?
Both are released against the limits on the approved specification; the measured result for your lot appears on its COA.
Can you produce to our own specification or packing?
Alternative assay targets, particle size, packing and private-label requirements are reviewed case by case, subject to production feasibility and a revised written specification.
Can I get a sample before placing the order?
Yes. An evaluation sample is normally available before a formal order. Sample quantity, courier account and destination are confirmed at the time of request.
Which documents come with the shipment?
Batch COA, specification sheet, agreed third-party testing where required, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and transport documents. The exact set is confirmed against the product and destination market.
