  • Applications

    Epoxyartemisia ketone, CAS 79507-83-8, is used as a fragrance ingredient and intermediate across several industrial applications: as a note in perfumery and cosmetics; as a fragrance component in household cleaners and detergents; as a fragrance additive in coatings, paints, and inks; and as a reactive intermediate for polymer, plastic, or adhesive formulations, potentially contributing to crosslinking or formulation stability. Its epoxy ketone structure may enable further chemical modification in synthesis. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
