Description

Dodecenyl Acetate is a high-purity, highly volatile ester compound widely utilized as a key intermediate and fragrance ingredient. Its value lies in its ability to impart unique fruity, waxy, and floral notes, making it essential for creating sophisticated scent profiles. This product is primarily needed by manufacturers in the flavors and fragrances (F&F) industry, as well as by chemical synthesis specialists for producing other fine chemicals and specialty esters.

Application

• Fragrance Formulation: Serves as a key component in perfumes, colognes, and personal care products for its characteristic waxy, fruity, and slightly floral aroma.
• Flavor Enhancement: Used in the creation of complex flavorings for food and beverages, contributing to fruity and citrus nuances.
• Chemical Intermediate: Acts as a crucial building block in organic synthesis for the production of more complex esters, alcohols, and other specialty chemicals.
• Soaps and Detergents: Incorporated as a fragrance ingredient in scented soaps, laundry detergents, and fabric softeners to provide a fresh, clean scent.
• Cosmetics and Toiletries: Used in lotions, creams, and hair care products to deliver a pleasant and stable fragrance.
• Industrial Deodorants: Employed in air fresheners and industrial deodorizing products for its effective masking and scenting properties.
• Research & Development: Utilized in laboratories for analytical standards, process development, and novel compound synthesis.

Quality Control

Our Dodecenyl Acetate is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including Gas Chromatography (GC) for assay and impurity profiling, to meet the demanding standards of the fragrance and fine chemical industries. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and specific tests is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). Due to its highly volatile nature, keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Ensure containers are kept upright and properly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and maintain product integrity.
