Quality Control

Our 4-(2-Hydroxy-2,6,6-Trimethylcyclohexyl)-3-Buten-2-Ol is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for fragrance and flavor applications. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and spectroscopic methods, to verify identity, purity, and the absence of unwanted impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

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