Description

Alpha,Beta,4-Trimethylcyclohexanepropionaldehyde is a high-purity, specialized aldehyde derivative of trimethylcyclohexane, valued for its unique woody, ambery, and slightly floral olfactory profile. This compound matters as a versatile and potent fragrance intermediate, enabling the creation of sophisticated and stable scent accords in demanding formulations. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the fragrance and flavor industry, as well as by R&D chemists developing novel aroma chemicals and functional materials.

Application

• Fragrance & Flavor Industry: A key building block for high-end perfumery, used in fine fragrances, personal care products, and household cleaners to impart woody, amber, and powdery notes.
• Aroma Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a crucial intermediate in the synthesis of more complex fragrance molecules and specialty odorants.
• Functional Product Scents: Employed in functional products like detergents, fabric softeners, and air fresheners where scent stability and longevity are required.
• Cosmetic Formulations: Used in scented lotions, creams, and other cosmetic products that benefit from its distinctive and persistent aroma character.
• Chemical Research & Development: Utilized in academic and industrial R&D for exploring new organic reactions and developing novel specialty chemicals.

Quality Control

Our Alpha,Beta,4-Trimethylcyclohexanepropionaldehyde is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and olfactory consistency meet the high standards of the fragrance industry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, physical properties, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and strong oxidizing agents.
