Quality Control

Our 5-Iodonaphthalen-1-Ol is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We employ advanced analytical techniques, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to verify identity and quantify purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specification parameters is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and tendency for oxidation, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
