Quality Control

Our 2-Naphthyloxyethanamide is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy, to confirm identity and purity. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your internal quality standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect product stability and performance.
