Quality Control

Our Potassium Isobutyl 4-Oxidobenzoate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the required specifications for your application. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, physical characteristics, and test results are provided with every shipment and are available upon request.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
