Quality Control

Our Ethylmethylbenzene-1,3-Diamine is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to verify identity and assay. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation and to minimize moisture uptake and degradation.
