Quality Control

Our Phenoaldehyde is produced and handled under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters are available upon request, providing full traceability and compliance data for your regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials. Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for optimal stability.
