Zenthol Perfume Grade Ethanol
Overview
Zenthol Perfume Grade Ethanol, produced by Zenith Bio Chemical Industries Pvt. Ltd., is a specially refined ethyl alcohol designed for use in high-quality fragrance formulations. It is characterized by its exceptional clarity, non-reactive chemical nature, and absence of any residual odour or contaminants. Widely preferred by the cosmetics, personal care, and fragrance industries, this ethanol grade meets stringent quality and purity standards, making it ideal for direct application in scent-sensitive formulations.
Manufacturing and Purity Standards
This product is manufactured using advanced multi-column distillation followed by specialized filtration processes to remove any aldehydes, ketones, and fusel oils that could interfere with fragrance composition. The ethanol used is rectified to 96% v/v and then refined to ensure neutrality in both scent and color, meeting IFRA and REACH standards for safe use in cosmetic applications.
