Quality Control

Our 2-Chloro-N-(2-Chloro-4-Methylphenyl)Acetamide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity verification and identity confirmation by FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
