Quality Control

Our 2-Amino-1,3-Propanediol is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and related substances, to meet the stringent requirements of our global clientele. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available for every batch and provided upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product quality and stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
