Quality Control

Our Tetracosanamide, n-[2-Hydroxy-1-(Hydroxymethyl)Heptadecyl]- is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay, identification, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets precise specifications for industrial and cosmetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, physical characteristics, and compliance are available upon request 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 area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and performance.
