Quality Control

Our 3-(2-Chloro-4-Trifluoromethyl)Phenoxy)Benzoicacid,Potass. is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC and NMR, to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and impurity profiles. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your project requirements.

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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
