Quality Control

Our 1,2-Bis(2-Methoxymethylethoxy)Propane is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC and HPLC analysis, to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided with every shipment, detailing key parameters such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our customers in regulated industries.

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). Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture absorption and oxidation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
