Ethyl Butyrate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Ethyl Butanoate
- Butanoic Acid, Ethyl Ester
Ethyl butyrate supplier enquiries in Malaysia come from flavour houses, fragrance compounders and manufacturers buying this defined fruity ester. Also known as ethyl butanoate or butanoic acid, ethyl ester, it is a clear, colourless liquid identified by CAS 105-54-4 and formula C6H12O2.
The commercial choice is the grade specification rather than a different physical form. Food and flavour grades serve formulations that need a suitable flavour standard, fragrance grades focus on odour and colour controls, and technical grades cover aroma-chemical and fine-chemical processing.
Beverage, confectionery, bakery and dairy formulations use ethyl butyrate to build fruit profiles. Fragrance compounds for perfume, soap, detergent and toiletries use the same ester as a fruity top note, while suitable feed and pharmaceutical formulations may specify it as a flavour or odour-masking input.
Send the required grade, target specification, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.
