Quality Control

Our p-Aminobenzylchloride is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assays and identity confirmation. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications and industry standards.

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 light-sensitive nature, the container must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
