Quality Control

Our production of 1-Butanethiol, 4-[4-[(1E)-Phenylazo]Phenoxy]- (9Ci) adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research and development purposes. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including NMR, HPLC, and mass spectrometry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with your material specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents and sources of ignition.
