Quality Control

Our (E)-3-(4-Fluoro-3-Nitrophenyl)Acrylic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure compliance with exacting standards for research and industrial use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its properties of being easily oxidized, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) is recommended for optimal stability. Keep away from strong bases and oxidizing agents.
