Geraniol Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Geranyl Alcohol
Geraniol supplier for fragrance, flavour and personal-care manufacturers in Malaysia. Geraniol is an acyclic monoterpenoid alcohol, (E)-3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-ol, with a characteristic rose-like odour. It is a colourless to pale yellow oily liquid and one of the most widely used terpene alcohols in perfumery.
Fragrance-grade and food-grade geraniol are selected against GC purity, odour quality and impurity limits. Because geraniol is a reactive allylic alcohol, specification and handling are matched to the intended use. State the application so the quoted grade fits.
Typical uses include the rose note in perfumes, soaps and cosmetics, flavouring in foods and beverages, fragrance in cleaning products, and as an intermediate for citronellol and geranyl esters. Suitability for each application should be confirmed against the finished formulation.
Send the fragrance or food grade, GC and odour specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. The offer confirms compatible liquid packing, available grade documents and delivery timing. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
