Quality Control

Our 3-(4-n-Butylphenyl)-2-Methyl-1-Propene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography (HPLC/GC) and spectroscopic methods, to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available for 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. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. This material is easily oxidized; ensure containers are sealed properly after each use to minimize exposure to air.
