Quality Control

Every batch of Benzaldehyde, 2-Hydroxy-6-(1-Methylethyl)- (9Ci) is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. We employ advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, GC, and NMR to ensure identity, purity, and consistency meet the high standards required for research and industrial use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee full traceability and compliance.

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 light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, and strong bases.
