  • Applications

    Pratol (CAS 487-24-1) is used primarily as an aroma ingredient and often functions as an intermediate in the synthesis of fragrance compounds. In perfumery, it may serve as an odorant or a fixative. In cosmetics and personal care, it is evaluated as a fragrance ingredient; in household and cleaning products, it can provide fragrance notes as an additive. In industrial settings, it may be used as an intermediate in fragrance syntheses and may be considered as an additive for coatings and inks. It could also be evaluated for applications in polymers/plastics, subject to formulation requirements and local regulations.
