Quality Control

Our n-Methylcinnamylamine is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by GC/HPLC and identification by FT-IR, to ensure it meets the required specifications for purity and identity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your quality standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
