Quality Control

Our Oxiranecarboxylic Acid, 2-Cyano-3-(1-Methylethyl)-, Methyl Ester, trans- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We employ advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, GC, and NMR for comprehensive characterization. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to the reactive nature of the epoxide and nitrile functional groups, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability and to minimize moisture uptake.
