Quality Control

Our 3-Methyl-3-Buten-2-Ol is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopy (IR, NMR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents and acids. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize moisture absorption and volatilization.
