Description

Terpenesandterpenoids CAS NO 68917-58-8 refers to a complex mixture of terpene and terpenoid compounds, a class of naturally derived hydrocarbons and their oxygenated derivatives known for their diverse aromatic and functional properties. This blend is valued for its versatility as a natural flavor, fragrance, and solvent component, offering a sustainable alternative to synthetic options. It is essential for manufacturers in the flavor & fragrance, cosmetics, agrochemical, and cleaning product industries seeking high-quality, naturally sourced ingredients.

Application

• Flavor & Fragrance Industry: Used as a key aromatic component and natural flavor enhancer in perfumes, colognes, air fresheners, and food flavorings.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Serves as a natural fragrance and functional ingredient in soaps, lotions, shampoos, and other skincare formulations.
• Agrochemicals: Acts as a natural solvent, co-formulant, or active ingredient carrier in pesticides and herbicides.
• Industrial Cleaning & Degreasing: Employed as an effective, bio-based solvent in industrial cleaners, degreasers, and parts washers.
• Aromatherapy & Wellness: Utilized in the production of essential oil blends, diffuser oils, and therapeutic products.
• Paints & Coatings: Functions as a natural solvent or additive to modify viscosity and drying characteristics.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: May serve as a starting material or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex pharmaceutical compounds.

Quality Control

Our Terpenesandterpenoids are produced and tested under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity. Quality parameters are verified through advanced analytical techniques including Gas Chromatography (GC) and GC-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) to characterize the composition. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific grade specifications is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your application requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and open flame. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability and to minimize compositional changes. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
