Quality Control

Our 2-Methyl-3-Decen-5-One is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is analyzed using advanced techniques including GC, GC-MS, and NMR to verify identity, purity, and isomer composition. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized and should be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
