Quality Control

Our Carbanilic Acid, 2,4-Dimethyl-6-Nitro (4Ci) is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
