Quality Control

Our 2-[(p-Chlorophenoxy)Methyl]-2-Methyl-1,3-Propanediol is produced under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

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