Quality Control

Our 2-Hexanone, 3-(Dimethylamino)- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide detailed Certificates of Analysis (COA) with key parameters such as assay (by GC or HPLC), identity confirmation (by IR or NMR), and impurity profiles. Specifications can be aligned with customer requirements for research or cGMP applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for optimal shelf life.
