Quality Control

Our 2-Naphthyl Sulfate is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identity confirmation, purity assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial use. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, physical characteristics, and test results is provided with every shipment and is available upon request.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and stability.
