Quality Control

Our 2-(4-Nitrophenoxy)Tetradecanoyl Chloride, 92 is manufactured under strict quality protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets the specified standard of 92% minimum purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

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 nature as a strong acid/organic solvent, keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as bases, alcohols, and amines. Handle and store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) if prolonged storage is anticipated to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition.
