Quality Control

Our Benzaldehyde, 2-(2-Hydroxyethenyl)- (9Ci) is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed batch-specific results are provided to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
