Quality Control

Our 3-Amino-2,6-Bis(tert-Butyl)Phenol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your 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 sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
