Decanal
Description
Decanal (CAS 112-31-2 ), also known as capric aldehyde, is a medium-chain aliphatic aldehyde used as a fragrance and flavoring ingredient across personal care and food industries. With a characteristic fresh, citrus-orange odor profile, it functions as a key building block in fragrance compositions and flavor systems where naturalistic citrus or waxy top notes are required. In fragrance formulation, decanal is a standard component in citrus, floral, and aldehydic fine fragrance accords, contributing lift and diffusion to finished perfumes and functional products. Food and beverage manufacturers use it as a flavoring agent — FEMA 2362 — to replicate or enhance orange, lemon, and fatty flavor profiles in confectionery, beverages, and dairy products. In personal care, it appears in soaps, shampoos, and rinse-off products where citrus-forward scent profiles are targeted. It also finds use in printing and packaging applications as an intermediate. Decanal is supplied as a colorless to pale yellow liquid. It is available in food-grade and fragrance-grade specifications, with purity levels typically at 98% or higher for industrial applications. Packaging ranges from small drums to bulk quantities to suit both compounders and large-scale industrial buyers. Our material meets rigorous quality standards for global distribution and use.
