Quality Control

Our production of 2-Butanone, 3-Amino-4-Mercapto- (9Ci) adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopic methods, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay and impurity profiles to meet your specific R&D or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
