Quality Control

Our 12-Methyltridecanal is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including Gas Chromatography (GC) and Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider maintaining under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen). Keep away from strong oxidizing agents, acids, and bases.
