Quality Control

Our 4-[(2-Oxo-3-Bornylidene)-Methyl]-Phenyltrimethylammonium Methylsulphate is produced under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications and high-purity standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request.

Storage

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