Quality Control

Our 4-(2-Methylthiophenyl)Phenol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay purity and impurity profiles.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature (store under inert atmosphere), it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage and to minimize headspace in opened containers.
