Quality Control

Our Propanamide, n-(3-Cyanophenyl)-2-Methyl- is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and impurity profiling, to meet the exacting standards required for fine chemical synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and related substances are provided with every shipment and are available upon request.

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 stability and performance. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
