Quality Control

Every batch of 2,6-Dichloro-4-Pyrimidinepropanoic Acid is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. We ensure compliance with relevant industry standards for fine chemical intermediates. Comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, is performed. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results 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, 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 to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
