2. Physical & Chemical Properties
2.1 Physical Index
- Appearance: Colorless transparent viscous oily liquid
- Odor: Soft muguet, lily floral fragrance
- Solubility: Soluble in ethanol, dipropylene glycol, perfume oils; slightly soluble in hot water; insoluble in cold water and aliphatic alkanes
- Boiling Point: 214–216 °C
- Refractive Index nD20: 1.512–1.516
- Density (20℃): 0.972–0.978 g/cm3
- Hygroscopy: Non-hygroscopic
2.2 Chemical Properties
- Tertiary Alcohol Structure: No easy dehydration under mild neutral conditions; forms ester derivatives via esterification with carboxylic acids
- Acid & Alkali Stability: Stable in weak acid and alkaline daily chemical formula systems; dehydration occurs under concentrated strong acid heating
- Thermal Stability: Stable below 180℃; slight aroma loss under prolonged high temperature heating
- Photostability: Moderate light resistance; avoid long-term intense UV exposure to prevent yellowing
- Compatibility: Compatible with most fragrance solvents, surfactants and cosmetic raw materials; incompatible with concentrated strong mineral acids and strong dehydrating agents
3. Main Application Fields
