Quality Control

Our 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-2-Nitropropane-1,3-Diol is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and heavy metals. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your specifications and relevant industry standards.

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). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
