Quality Control

Our 5-[(2-Aminophenyl)Methyl]-2-Methylbenzene-1,3-Diamine is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics. Our quality commitment supports compliance with cGMP and ISO 9001 standards for reliable supply to regulated industries.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
