Quality Control

Our Pentadecyl Dihydrogen Phosphate is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Production adheres to cGMP guidelines where applicable, and each lot is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles. We are committed to meeting the specific quality standards required for pharmaceutical intermediates, high-performance additives, and research chemicals.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from strong bases and oxidizing agents.
