Quality Control

Our 4-(2-Aminoethyl)-2-Chlorophenol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for sensitive synthesis applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability, consistency, and compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
