Quality Control

Our (2,4-Dichlorobenzyl)Methylamine Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, residual solvent analysis, and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical and fine chemical applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance. Keep away from incompatible materials.
