Quality Control

Our 2-Iodobenzene-1,3-Diol is manufactured under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We employ advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, GC, and NMR for comprehensive characterization and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and specific test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your research or production specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
