  • Applications

    Ethyleugenol (CAS 74368-00-6) is primarily used as an aroma chemical and fixative in perfumery, delivering a clove-like, spicy scent and helping to extend fragrance longevity. It is also used in cosmetics and personal care as a fragrance ingredient, and in household care and cleaning products as an odorant/fragrance component. Additionally, it serves as an intermediate or building block for synthesis of other aroma compounds in industrial manufacturing. In coatings and inks, ethyleugenol may be used to impart or release fragrance via encapsulation technologies. It may also be evaluated as a flavor ingredient in select food applications, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
