Quality Control

Our 2-(Propylamino)-1-Propanol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, identity confirmation, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, physical properties, and test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
