Quality Control

Our 4-(2-Chloropropionyl)Phenylacetic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy, to ensure high purity and consistency suitable for sensitive synthesis applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications 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, and well-ventilated place at a controlled 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.
