Présentation du produit & avantages clés
Ethyl hexanoate is the ethyl ester of hexanoic (caproic) acide. Its fruity, winey odor makes it the signature ester of strong-aroma Chinese baijiu, and it is widely used in pineapple, banana and apple flavors, in liquor and tobacco flavors, and as an organic synthesis intermediate.
The correct synonym is ethyl caproate. It is not an ester of 2-ethylhexanoic acid, although the current page lists “2-ethylhexanoate”.

Emballage & stockage
Emballage
Tell us the drum or IBC size you prefer and your pallet requirements; nous confirmons l'emballage avec le devis.
Stockage
Keep containers closed in a cool, ventilated store away from heat and ignition sources. Esters slowly hydrolyze with moisture, which raises the acid value.
