Alkenes are powerful organic synthons for the introduction of specific hydrocarbon structures into target molecules. They can also be functionalized or derivatized through a variety of addition chemistries. We offer high-purity linear and branched alpha and internal olefins for your synthetic needs. For example, neohexene and 2-methyl-2-butene can be used in the production of synthetic musks.
Mercaptans and disulfides are used in trace quantities as flavoring agents.
PA-18 is an alternating maleic anhydride/octadecene copolymer that serves as a waterproofing agent for a number of personal care products.
Our Soltrol® isoparaffins are useful as solvents or carriers for hand cleaners and cosmetics.
We would be happy to work with you to supply the feedstock you need for your flavor and fragrance application.
