Quality Control

Our [2,2'-Binaphthalene]-1,1',6,6',7,7'-Hexol, 3,3'-Dimethyl-5,5'-Bis(1-Methylethyl)- is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistent chemical identity, meeting the stringent requirements for advanced synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurities, and physical characteristics are 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 sensitivity to oxidation, prolonged storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) is recommended for optimal long-term stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
