Quality Control

Our 1,4-Pentanediamine, 4-Methyl- is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, impurity profiling, and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications and industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, physical properties, and test results are provided with every shipment and are available upon request.

Storage

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