  • Applications

    Cyclohexanecarboxaldehyde, 2,2,6-trimethyl- (CAS 13155-57-2) is used primarily as a fragrance intermediate and odorant in perfumery, contributing woody and green notes to blends. It is commonly evaluated for use in cosmetics and personal care products as a fragrance ingredient, and in household products such as air fresheners and cleaners to impart a lasting scent. In industrial manufacturing, it serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of higher-value fragrance compounds and related formulations. This material is used within permissible product categories under local regulations and formulation limits.
