Description

Eulicin CAS NO 534-76-9 is a high-purity chemical compound, also known as 2,4-Dichlorobenzyl alcohol, valued for its antimicrobial and preservative properties. This makes it a critical functional ingredient for formulators requiring effective biocidal activity. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, personal care, and industrial disinfectant sectors.

Application

• As a preservative and antimicrobial agent in pharmaceutical formulations, such as throat lozenges, oral antiseptics, and topical ointments.
• Key ingredient in personal care and cosmetic products, including mouthwashes, toothpaste, and skin disinfectants, for its biocidal efficacy.
• Active component in industrial and household disinfectants and sanitizers for surface cleaning applications.
• Used in material preservation for products like paints, adhesives, and coatings to prevent microbial degradation.
• Intermediate in the synthesis of other fine chemicals and more complex antimicrobial agents.

Quality Control

Our Eulicin is produced under a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. It is manufactured in compliance with cGMP guidelines where applicable, and each lot is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles. Certificates are available upon request to meet your regulatory and quality assurance requirements.

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 sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability. Keep away from incompatible materials.
