  • Applications

    Sanshodiol is primarily considered as a fragrance-related ingredient and odorant, used in perfumery and cosmetics to contribute a peppery note or sensory modifier, and may be evaluated as a flavor-modifying component for specialty foods and beverages, subject to regulatory approvals. In industry, it can serve as an intermediate and building block for chemical synthesis, including polymer-related applications. It may be used as a scent additive in household cleaners and in coatings and paints formulations. Its use is formulation- and regulation-dependent, with certain applications potentially restricted by local rules.
