Quality Control

Our 2-[[[(4-Chlorophenyl)Methoxy]Imino]Methyl]-6-Hydroxybenzoic Acid is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical and agrochemical applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific batch results are available upon request, and we can support custom purity grades to meet your project specifications.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
