Quality Control

Our 1-Chloro-2-(2-Chloroethoxy)Propane is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We employ advanced analytical techniques including GC, HPLC, and NMR to verify identity and assay. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurities, and physical properties is provided with each shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with customer specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep containers tightly sealed when not in use and handle in a fume hood.
