Quality Control

Our 4-Phenethylphenol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistency. We provide detailed Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications. Our quality commitment supports applications requiring reliable and traceable raw materials for GMP and non-GMP production.

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 the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
