Quality Control

Our 2-Amino-3,5-Dichlorobenzonitrile is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to verify identity and purity against established specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with your quality requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature, the container should be opaque or kept in darkness. As the compound is easily oxidized, consider storage under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation of quality. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
