製品概要 & 主な利点
Ethyl hexanoate is the ethyl ester of hexanoic (caproic) 酸. 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”.

包装 & ストレージ
包装
Tell us the drum or IBC size you prefer and your pallet requirements; we confirm the packaging with the quotation.
ストレージ
Keep containers closed in a cool, ventilated store away from heat and ignition sources. Esters slowly hydrolyze with moisture, which raises the acid value.
輸送
