Quality Control

Our 1,1'-(Hexamethylenedioxy)Bis(3-Chloropropan-2-Ol) 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 data from HPLC, GC, NMR, and other relevant techniques. Our quality commitment ensures the material meets the stringent requirements for research and industrial synthesis.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect product quality. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents.
