description Product Description
Used in the synthesis of esters for flavorings and fragrances, valeric acid contributes fruity and creamy notes in food and perfume industries. It serves as a precursor in pharmaceutical manufacturing, aiding the production of sedatives and anticonvulsants. Also employed as a plasticizer additive, it improves the flexibility of polymers in industrial applications. In research, it acts as a building block for organic synthesis and is involved in studies on metabolic pathways and microbial fermentation processes.
