  • Applications

    p-Menthan-8-yl acetate (CAS 80-25-1) is an aroma-related ester used primarily as a fragrance ingredient, where it can serve as a note contributor and, in some formulations, as a fixative to extend scent life. It is also evaluated for use as a flavor component in confectionery and beverages due to its minty/green character. In cosmetics and personal care, it is employed in scented products such as lotions, soaps, and deodorants. In household products, it can be used to impart or enhance fragrance in cleaners and air fresheners. Additionally, in coatings, inks, and adhesives, it may be employed as a fragrance additive to provide a pleasant scent. Subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
