Quality Control

Our N,2-Dicyanoacetamide Sodium Salt is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for use in sensitive applications like pharmaceutical synthesis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurity profile, and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and handling properties. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
