Quality Control

Our Hexa-4,5-Dien-1-Ol is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification by FT-IR and NMR, purity assay by GC or HPLC, and control of key impurities. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, the container should be kept sealed after each use to minimize exposure to air.
