Quality Control

Our Pyrimidine, 2-Isocyanato-4,6-Dimethyl- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy to ensure high purity and consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your regulatory and R&D requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
