Quality Control

Our 3-Ethoxy-2-Isopropylacrolein is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR), to verify identity, purity, and the absence of critical impurities. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider keeping under an inert atmosphere (nitrogen or argon) to maintain stability and purity. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
