Quality Control

Our 4-Methoxy-2,3,6-Trimethylbenzyl Alcohol is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all specifications and test results. Our quality commitment ensures the material meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
