FAQs of Isolongifolene:
Q: How should Isolongifolene be stored to ensure its stability and shelf life?
A: Isolongifolene should be stored in tightly sealed HDPE drums, barrels, or bottles at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. When properly stored, it remains stable and effective for up to two years.
Q: What is the recommended process for handling and using Isolongifolene in industrial applications?
A: When using Isolongifolene, handle it in a well-ventilated area and avoid contact with incompatible materials. Since it is soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in water, it should be blended accordingly. Standard usage involves incorporating it as an intermediate or aromatic compound, following safety protocols prescribed for organic chemicals.
Q: Where is Isolongifolene typically applied, and what are its main benefits?
A: Isolongifolene is widely utilized in the perfumery and flavor industries due to its woody, camphoraceous aroma. Additionally, it serves as an intermediate in pharmaceuticals, aroma chemical synthesis, and insecticides. Its high purity, stability, and compatibility with organic solvents enhance its usefulness and performance in these fields.
Q: What packaging options are available for Isolongifolene, and can custom sizes be requested?
A: Isolongifolene is available in HDPE drums, barrels, and bottles with standard sizes of 1 kg, 5 kg, 25 kg, and 200 kg. Custom packaging sizes can be arranged to meet specific requirements upon request.
Q: When should Isolongifolene be chosen over other aroma chemicals or intermediates?
A: Isolongifolene is preferred when a stable, industrial grade organic compound with a woody, camphor-like odor is required, especially when solubility in organic solvents is necessary and high purity is critical for the final application.
Q: What regulatory and quality standards does Isolongifolene comply with?
A: Isolongifolene complies with current industry standards, ensuring that it meets quality, safety, and regulatory requirements set for its use in pharmaceuticals, flavors, and other chemical applications.
Q: How is Isolongifolene produced, and what is its typical purity level?
A: Isolongifolene is produced by distilling pine oil extracted from Pinus longifolia. It is supplied as an industrial grade product with a minimum purity of 95% and impurities below 5%.
