Quality Control

Our 5-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-Furaldehyde undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. We implement a strict quality management system, and each batch is analyzed to confirm identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (by HPLC), related substances, and residual solvents are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
