Quality Control

Our Sodium 4-Propan-2-Ylbenzenesulfonate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure consistent purity and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, moisture content, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to caking or reduced efficacy.
