Quality Control

Our 4-Chloro-2-Tetradecylphenol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assays and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications and consistent high-quality standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong oxidizing agents. Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity for oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation.
