Quality Control

Our α-[4-(2-Formylvinyl)-2-Methoxyphenoxy]-4-Hydroxy-3-Methoxybenzeneacrylaldehyde is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets precise customer specifications and high-purity standards for research and synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical quality attributes are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents and incompatible materials.
