Quality Control

Our (2-Hydroxyethyl)Dimethylammonium 2-(4-Chlorophenoxy)-2-Methylpropionate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles 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 place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
