Quality Control

Our 4,4'-Bis(Methylamino)Benzophenone is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets exacting industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
