Quality Control

Our 1-(4-Chlorophenyl)Ethanamine HCl is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and titration methods, to meet exacting customer specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area 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.
