Quality Control

Our production of Cyclohexanone, 2-(1-Hydroxy-1,2-Dimethylpropyl)- adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch is characterized and tested to ensure identity, purity, and consistency, meeting the exacting standards required for research and process development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (by HPLC or GC), chiral purity, and impurity profile is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
