Quality Control

Our 4,8-Diamino-2,6-Dibromo-1,5-Naphthoquinone is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure consistent quality and batch-to-batch reproducibility. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) specifying purity, impurity profile, and physical data is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
