  • Applications

    Ginkgol (CAS 501-26-8) is a terpene-derived compound reported from Ginkgo biloba. In industry, it may be used as a fragrance material or odorant for perfumery and cosmetics, and can serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Owing to its terpene character, ginkgol is also being evaluated for applications in coatings and inks, and may participate in polymer and plastic formulations as an additive or intermediate. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
