Quality Control

Our production of 4-(4-Bromo-2-Chloro-Phenoxymethyl)-Benzoic Acid adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets exacting customer specifications. We provide full traceability and a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, documenting critical parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 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. Keep away from incompatible materials.
