Quality Control

Our 1-(2-Bromoethyl)-4-Isopropylbenzene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment and is 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). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be kept in the original packaging or an opaque secondary container until use.
