• Appearance: Liquid
• Application: Nonanol is a colorless to light yellow liquid known for its distinctive rose-orange scent and slightly fatty, bitter flavor akin to orange, making it an integral ingredient found in various citrus oils. This straight-chain fatty alcohol, characterized by its nine-carbon structure and molecular formula CH3(CH2)8OH, naturally occurs in the oil of oranges and many plant-derived volatile oils. Nonanol is primarily utilized in the creation of artificial lemon oil, and its various esters, like nonyl acetate, are significant in the production of perfumes and flavorings. With its unique properties and applications, nonanol plays a crucial role in both the fragrance and food industries.
