  • Applications

    Tricycloekasantalol (CAS 16933-12-3) is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery and cosmetics, serving as a scent component or fixative to impart or preserve a sandalwood-like aroma. It is also considered a fragrance additive in household products such as cleaners, detergents, and air fresheners to provide a lasting fragrance. In industrial manufacturing, it may function as an intermediate or building block in the synthesis of aroma-related chemicals. It may be evaluated for use in coatings, inks, and polymer formulations as a fragrance additive or processing aid. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
