  • Applications

    Maltyl butyrate (67860-01-9) is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient, delivering a malty, caramel-like note in perfumery and scented cosmetics; it is commonly evaluated for use as a flavor/aroma additive in select food and beverage formulations; in cosmetics and personal care it contributes to scent profiles in products such as lotions and soaps; in household products it serves as a fragrance component for air fresheners and cleaners; and in industrial contexts it may function as an intermediate in the synthesis of other fragrance esters for coatings, inks, or polymer formulations.
