Quality Control

Our 3-(tert-Butylamino)Propane-1,2-Diol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay (HPLC), identity confirmation (IR, NMR), and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high-purity standards required for advanced synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, guaranteeing traceability and compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product quality and stability.
