Quality Control

Our 2,3-Dichlorophenyl Isothiocyanate is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high chemical purity. Each lot is analyzed using advanced techniques including HPLC, GC, and NMR to verify identity and assay. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurities, and physical properties is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance processes.

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). Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to minimize exposure to moisture and prevent evaporation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
