Quality Control

Our 1,5-Hexadien-1-Ol is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to verify identity and assay. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical quality parameters are provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its easily oxidized nature, minimize headspace in opened containers and handle under inert gas when possible to maintain product integrity.
