Quality Control

Our 4-(2-Aminophenyl)Benzyl Alcohol is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and GC-MS, to verify identity and purity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage and to minimize exposure to moisture.
