Quality Control

Our trans-2-(p-Chlorobenzoyl)-1-Cyclohexanecarboxylic Acid, 98 is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral analysis, to ensure it meets the specified 98% minimum purity and consistent performance. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
