Quality Control

Our production of 2,6-Dichloro-4-[(dimethylamino)methyl]phenol hydrochloride adheres to stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and impurity profiling, to meet the exacting standards required for synthetic intermediates. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and related substances is provided with every shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with your quality requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
