Quality Control

Our 4-Amino-6-Mercapto-1,3,5-Triazin-2(5H)-One is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthesis and research. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, store under dry, inert conditions (e.g., nitrogen atmosphere) in a cool, dry place (15-25°C). Prolonged exposure to air and moisture should be avoided to prevent oxidation and degradation.
