Quality Control

Every batch of 2',6'-Dimethyl-3-(4-Fluorophenyl)Propiophenone is manufactured under strict quality management systems. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure the product meets the high-purity standards required for sensitive synthetic applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA), confirming identity, purity, and impurity profiles via techniques like HPLC, GC, and NMR, is supplied with each shipment to guarantee reliable and consistent performance in your processes.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which could affect stability and handling properties.
