Quality Control

Our 3-m-Toluidinopropane-1,2-Diol is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (HPLC/GC) and spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with your research or manufacturing specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
