  • Applications

    Epicamphor (CAS 10292-98-5) is used as an odorant and fragrance fixative in perfumery, helping to stabilize and extend the scent in formulations. It is also used as a fragrance ingredient in cosmetics and personal care products, contributing to aroma profiles in creams, lotions, and hair care products. In household products and cleaning formulations, it often functions as a fragrance additive or scent carrier to impart a pleasant odor. In industrial manufacturing, it can serve as an intermediate in fragrance synthesis and as a component in solvent or resin systems related to chemical processing. It may also be used as an aromatic additive in coatings and inks, with use governed by formulation needs and regulatory considerations.
