Description

Nerylacetone is a high-value, naturally occurring ketone widely used as a key fragrance and flavor intermediate. Its importance lies in its ability to impart fresh, floral, and fruity notes, making it essential for creating complex aromatic profiles. This compound is primarily needed by manufacturers in the fragrance, flavor, and fine chemical industries seeking reliable, high-quality ingredients for their formulations.

Application

• Fragrance Industry: A key building block for synthesizing and enhancing floral, citrus, and green fragrance accords in perfumes, cosmetics, and personal care products.
• Flavor Industry: Used as a flavoring agent to impart fruity and berry-like nuances in food and beverage applications.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a valuable intermediate in the production of more complex aroma chemicals and pharmaceutical precursors.
• Household Products: Incorporated into detergents, fabric softeners, and air fresheners to provide a pleasant and lasting scent.
• Research & Development: Utilized in academic and industrial R&D for studying terpenoid chemistry and developing new synthetic pathways.

Quality Control

Our Nerylacetone is produced and tested under a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) for each lot, detailing key parameters such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles. Our quality commitment aligns with industry best practices for fragrance and flavor ingredients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
