Quality Control

Our 2-(Aminomethyl)Phenol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistency, meeting the stringent requirements of our global clientele. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled 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.
