Quality Control

Our 2-Ethenyl-2,5-Dimethyl-4-Hexen-1-Ol is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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 (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
