Quality Control

Our Meso-1,2-Bis[4-(Trifluoromethyl)Phenyl]Ethane-1,2-Diamine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity and impurity profile analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and specific test results are provided with every shipment.

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 nature, the container must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
