Quality Control

Our 4-(Aminomethyl)-2-Chlorophenol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and GC-MS, to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong oxidizing agents and incompatible materials. Due to the presence of amino and phenolic groups, it is recommended to handle and store under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability.
