Quality Control

Our 2-[4-(tert-Butyl)Phenoxy]Aniline is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets exacting standards for industrial and research applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics.

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 nature as an aromatic amine that is easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere), it is recommended to keep the container under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) after opening for extended storage to maintain product integrity. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
