description Product Description

Used as a flavor and fragrance additive in food and cosmetic products due to its fruity, green, and apple-like aroma. Commonly found in perfumes, soaps, and flavored consumer goods to enhance scent and taste profiles. Also used as a solvent in the paint and printing ink industries for its good solubility and slow evaporation, improving flow and reducing premature drying. Investigated as a bio-based solvent and platform chemical in green chemistry applications, offering a renewable alternative in industrial processes. Shows potential as a fuel additive for improving cold-flow properties in biodiesel. Its biodegradability and low toxicity make it suitable for environmentally friendly formulations, including skin care products where it is non-irritating.
