Quality Control

Our [4-(2-Fluoro-5-Methylphenyl)Phenyl]Acetic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, which includes results from HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy. Our quality commitment ensures the material meets the stringent requirements for use as a pharmaceutical intermediate.

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 hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents.
