Quality Control

Our (E)-5-Pentyloxy-2-Pentene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and industrial use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for purity, identity, and impurities is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong acids and oxidizing agents. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Recommended storage temperature: 2°C to 8°C (refrigerated).
