Quality Control

Our 1-Phenoxy-2-Propanol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity and identity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting results for assay, related substances, and physical properties are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized and should be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation to maintain optimal quality. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
