Quality Control

Every batch of 2-[(3,4-Dichlorobenzyl)Oxy]Benzaldehyde undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Our quality commitment includes adherence to in-house specifications developed for research and industrial use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, detailing results from tests such as HPLC purity, NMR identification, and residual solvent analysis. We support cGMP and ISO 9001 compliant manufacturing principles for traceability and quality assurance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents and incompatible materials.
