Quality Control

Our (4-Aminophenyl)-Methanol Hydrochloride is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with key parameters including assay (by HPLC), identification (by IR and NMR), and impurity profiles. Our quality system is designed to meet the stringent requirements of research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a 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.
