Quality Control

Our 1,2-Di(1-Cyclohexenyl)-1,2-Ethanediol is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research and development purposes. We provide comprehensive analytical data with each shipment. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

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 after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
