Quality Control

Our n-(2-Aminoethyl)-n-(4-Methylbenzyl)Amine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by HPLC and identification by FT-IR, to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity and identity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical quality attributes are available upon request to support your regulatory and quality assurance 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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product quality. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
