Quality Control

Our 6,7-Dichloroquinaldine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment. We support compliance with REACH and other global regulatory frameworks.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be opaque or stored in dark conditions.
