Quality Control

Our α-Phenyl-n-Ethylidenebenzeneethanamine is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (by HPLC), identity (by IR/NMR), and impurity profile is provided with every shipment, supporting 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 a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability, especially after opening the original container.
