Cinnamaldehyde Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Cinnamic Aldehyde
- Trans-Cinnamaldehyde
- 3-Phenyl-2-Propenal
- C9H8O
Cinnamaldehyde supplier enquiries in Malaysia cover this cinnamon aroma chemical for flavour, fragrance, feed, pharmaceutical and specialty synthesis work. Also known as cinnamic aldehyde or trans-cinnamaldehyde, it is a pale yellow to yellow liquid selected by assay, sensory profile, source basis and impurity limits.
Commercial choices include flavour grade, fragrance grade, declared natural-origin material and synthetic synthesis grades. Buyers may specify trans-isomer content or a total-cinnamaldehydes basis, so the analytical method and acceptance definition should accompany the enquiry.
Food and beverage manufacturers use cinnamaldehyde in cinnamon flavour systems, while personal-care and cleaning formulators use it in fragrance compounds. Feed formulators and chemical manufacturers also specify application-appropriate grades for aroma systems or as a building block in further synthesis.
Send the required grade, assay basis, colour, sensory and impurity specification, source requirement, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Cinnamaldehyde grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flavour-grade cinnamaldehyde | pale yellow to yellow liquid | — | Flavour and aroma systems for food and beverage manufacture where the formulation specifies cinnamaldehyde identity, sensory profile, assay and related-substance limits. Supply is subject to applicable requirements. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Fragrance-grade cinnamaldehyde | clear pale yellow to yellow liquid | — | Fragrance compounds for personal-care, cleaning and household formulations requiring a warm cinnamon note with controlled colour, odour and impurity profile. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Natural-origin cinnamaldehyde | pale yellow aromatic liquid isolated from a specified natural feedstock | — | Flavour, fragrance and formulation work where the buyer requires a declared natural-source basis in addition to the chemical and sensory specification. Source and documentation are confirmed with the quotation. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Synthetic and synthesis-grade cinnamaldehyde | pale yellow to yellow liquid | — | Aroma-chemical compounding and chemical synthesis where purity, trans-isomer basis, water, colour and related aldehydes are controlled by the receiving specification. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Cinnamaldehyde applications
Safety and handling
Keep tightly sealed and protect from heat, light, air and contamination to limit oxidation, colour change and aroma loss. Follow the safety and handling information supplied for the quoted flavour, fragrance or synthesis grade.
Common questions about Cinnamaldehyde
Is cinnamaldehyde the same as cinnamon oil?
No. Cinnamaldehyde is a defined aromatic aldehyde, while cinnamon oil is an essential-oil mixture that may contain cinnamaldehyde with other natural constituents. Order the pure aroma chemical or the essential oil according to the formulation's actual identity requirement.
Are cinnamic aldehyde and trans-cinnamaldehyde the same product?
Cinnamic aldehyde is an established alternate name for cinnamaldehyde, and the trans isomer is the predominant form specified in ordinary commercial grades. The assay and isomer basis should still be stated because a broad total-cinnamaldehydes result is not identical to a trans-isomer requirement.
What is the difference between natural-origin and synthetic cinnamaldehyde?
Both may provide the same core chemical identity, but they differ in source route, accompanying trace profile, sensory detail and required declarations. State whether source basis is controlled and provide the chemical and sensory acceptance limits.
Which cinnamaldehyde grade is used for flavours or fragrances?
Flavour grades are selected around food-formulation purity, sensory and documentation needs, while fragrance grades focus on aroma character, colour, impurities and compatibility with the finished fragrance. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
What does total cinnamaldehydes mean on a specification?
It is an analytical basis that may combine cinnamaldehyde-related components rather than state only the trans-cinnamaldehyde content. Provide the test basis and acceptance range used by the receiving process so unlike assay definitions are not compared directly.
What details should accompany a synthesis-grade enquiry?
State the required assay, trans-isomer basis, water, colour, acid value, related aldehydes and any reaction-specific impurity limits, together with the application, quantity and delivery location.
How are packing, documentation and price confirmed?
Include the grade, source basis, specification, quantity, delivery location, preferred packing and required documents. Available pack format, route and timing are confirmed with the quotation, and price is issued with a stated validity period.
