Quality Control

Our Hydroxypropyl Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent performance, purity, and compliance with relevant cosmetic-grade specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as nitrogen content, viscosity, and residue on ignition is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the original container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and caking.
