Description

Iso-Methyl Tetrahydroionyl Acetate is a high-purity fragrance intermediate and chemical building block, valued for its unique woody, amber-like olfactory profile and chemical stability. This compound is essential for formulators requiring consistent, high-quality raw materials to create sophisticated and long-lasting fragrance accords. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the flavor and fragrance (F&F), cosmetics, and fine chemical synthesis industries.

Application

• Fragrance Formulation: A key ingredient in premium perfumes, colognes, and personal care products for imparting woody, amber, and musky notes.
• Flavor Enhancement: Used in trace amounts to add complexity and depth to certain flavor profiles in specialty food and beverage applications.
• Cosmetic Ingredients: Incorporated into lotions, soaps, and other cosmetic formulations as a fragrance component.
• Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a versatile intermediate in the synthesis of more complex aroma chemicals and specialty esters.
• Household & Industrial Products: Used in air fresheners, detergents, and cleaning products to provide a stable and pleasant scent.
• Aromatherapy & Diffuser Oils: A component in blended essential oils and diffuser formulations for ambient scenting.

Quality Control

Our Iso-Methyl Tetrahydroionyl Acetate is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through comprehensive analytical testing including GC, IR, and NMR. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and physical parameters is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). Keep away from strong acids, oxidizing agents, and heat sources. As the material is easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage to maintain optimal quality.
