1. In agriculture
4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid is a synthetic auxin, a type of plant hormone. 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid CAS 122-88-3 can be used as a herbicide, particularly effective against broad - leaf weeds. By mimicking the action of natural auxins in plants, 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid CAS 122-88-3 disrupts their normal growth processes, causing abnormal growth and eventually leading to the death of the weeds.

2. In plant research
Scientists may use 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid to study plant growth and development processes, as 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid CAS 122-88-3 allows them to manipulate the auxin - related pathways in plants.

Packed in 25 kg per drum or based on customers' requirements.

1. Keep 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid in a cool, dry place. Heat and moisture can cause 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid CAS 122-88-3 to degrade, so aim for a temperature range of around 2 - 8℃ (36 - 46°F).

2. Store 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid in a tightly sealed container. 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid CAS 122-88-3 helps prevent air from oxidizing the compound and also stops any potential leakage.

3. Protect 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid from direct sunlight. Light can sometimes initiate chemical reactions in such compounds, so a dark storage area or a container that blocks light is advisable.

4. Keep 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid CAS 122-88-3 away from strong oxidizing agents, bases, and reducing agents, as these can react with 4 - Chlorophenoxyacetic acid.
