Quality Control

Our Butyl(2-Hydroxyethyl)Nitrosamine is produced and handled under stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identity confirmation and purity assessment via advanced chromatographic techniques. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all relevant specifications is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation 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 light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
