Application
Adoxal (2,6,10-Trimethyl-9-undecenal, CAS 141-13-9, FEMA 4768) is a powerful, long-lasting aldehyde renowned for its fresh, clean, and complex scent profile. It delivers a unique combination of marine, ozonic, and aldehydic notes, intertwined with a floral heart reminiscent of muguet (lily of the valley) and cyclamen, complemented by a characteristic “fresh linen” or “clean cotton” nuance. This versatile aroma chemical is predominantly utilized in the flavor and fragrance industry.

As a key ingredient in fine perfumery and personal care, Adoxal blends exceptionally well with floral, fruity, and woody compositions, making it an ideal component for fine fragrances, colognes, creams, lotions, shampoos, and soaps. Its pronounced “fresh linen” character makes it particularly valuable for household and laundry applications, where it provides excellent scent longevity and stability in fabric conditioners, liquid detergents, powder detergents, and all-purpose cleaners. Adoxal is effective at low use levels (traces to 5%) and demonstrates excellent substantivity on fabrics.
