Quality Control

Our 2,6-Diethyl-4-Methylaniline is produced under a stringent quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high-purity standards required for sensitive synthesis applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and strong oxidizing agents.
