Quality Control

Our 4-[4-(3-Chloro-1-Oxopropoxy)Butoxy]Benzoic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity (typically >97% by HPLC), physical characteristics, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

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