Quality Control

Our [1,1'-Biphenyl]-3,5-Dicarboxylic Acid, 4'-Formyl-3'-Hydroxy- is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay (HPLC), identity (IR, NMR), and impurity profiles. Specifications can be aligned with research-grade or custom purity requirements upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to prevent moisture absorption and potential degradation. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for optimal stability.
