Quality Control

Our 4-Bromocyclohexan-1-Ol is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, GC for residual solvents, and NMR/IR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are provided for every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed and under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage to prevent degradation.
