Quality Control

Our 2-Chloro-4-Fluoro-6-Nitrophenol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistent quality suitable for demanding synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with each shipment and are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong bases and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be amber-colored or stored in light-resistant secondary packaging.
