Linalool
Description
Linalool (CAS 78-70-6 ), also identified by FEMA 2635 , is a naturally occurring terpene alcohol sourced from essential oils such as lavender, coriander, and rosewood. It is also produced synthetically for industrial scale applications. It functions as a fragrance ingredient, flavoring agent, and solvent across personal care, food, and industrial formulations. In personal care and cosmetics, it is a primary fragrance component in fine perfumes and shampoos. The material is used in lotions and soaps, contributing floral-woody scent profiles that meet consumer and regulatory expectations. Food and beverage manufacturers use it as an approved flavoring to impart citrus and floral notes. It is commonly found in baked goods, beverages, and confectionery. In coatings and printing inks, it acts as a bio-based solvent and carrier, supporting formulation of low-VOC systems where sustainable sourcing is a priority. Adhesive and sealant formulators also evaluate it as a reactive or processing component where terpene-based chemistry is specified. The product is supplied as a clear, mobile liquid in drum and IBC quantities. Both natural and synthetic grades are commercially available, with natural grades typically accompanied by origin documentation relevant to clean-label claims. Technical and fragrance-grade specifications are standard for buyers. Procurement teams should confirm enantiomeric purity requirements where application demands a specific optical isomer. This ensures the material meets the precise chemical profile needed for high-end industrial manufacturing. Contact us for supply of Linalool Request Quote
