Eugenol Methyl Ether
Methyl eugenol is a naturally occurring aromatic compound widely found in various plant essential oils, possessing a typical sweet and spicy aroma. Structurally, it is a methyl ether derivative of eugenol, exhibiting better stability and volatility compared to eugenol itself. This makes it suitable for applications requiring long-lasting fragrance and system stability.
With its distinct aroma characteristics and excellent compatibility in formulations, methyl eugenol is widely used in fragrances, fine chemicals, and related functional formulations, and is an important component in various fragrance systems.
