Quality Control

Our 6-Amino-2,4-Dichloro-3-Ethylphenol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for sensitive synthetic applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting all critical quality parameters.

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 after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and performance.
