Heptyl Alcohol

Heptyl Alcohol

Heptanol is a seven-carbon alcohol with the chemical formula C7H16O and several isomeric forms, the most common being 1-heptanol. Heptanol appears as a clear, colorless liquid with a mild odor and is only slightly soluble in water but miscible with ethanol and ether. Acme’s Heptyl alcohol is derived from castor oil. 

It is mainly used in the fragrance and flavor industries due to its pleasant smell and is included in cosmetic formulations to enhance texture and scent. Industrial uses include serving as a chemical intermediate for producing esters and aroma compounds with fruity notes.
