Pure Citronellol (Geraniol Isomer)
Citronellol is an acyclic unsaturated monohydric terpene alcohol used primarily as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes and cosmetics. This pure form falls under HTS 2905.22.5010 as it matches the specific chemical definition of citronellol per chapter 29 notes for separate chemically defined organic compounds. It is typically supplied at 98%+ purity for industrial formulation.
Citronellol 85% Technical Grade
Technical grade citronellol at 85% purity with natural terpene impurities, used in bulk fragrance compounding and insect repellent formulations. Classified under HTS 2905.22.5010 as a separate chemically defined organic compound per chapter 29 note (a), allowing impurities. Commonly derived from citronella oil for cost-effective applications.
Synthetic Rhodinol (Citronellol)
Synthetic rhodinol, the laevorotatory isomer of citronellol, used in rose-type perfume accords and flavorings. Falls under HTS 2905.22.5010 as an acyclic terpene alcohol, chemically defined regardless of synthetic origin per chapter notes. High optical purity (>98% [-]-citronellol) for premium fragrance applications.
Natural Citronellol from Citronella Oil
Distilled natural citronellol extracted from Cymbopogon nardus (citronella) oil, used in 'natural' labeled cosmetics. Qualifies as separate chemically defined compound under HTS 2905.22.5010 despite natural origin, distinguishing from crude essential oils. Purity typically 70-90% with related terpenes.
Citronellol for Insect Repellent Synthesis
High-purity citronellol designated for conversion to PMD (p-menthane-3,8-diol) mosquito repellent. HTS 2905.22.5010 applies as chemically defined acyclic terpene alcohol used as chemical intermediate. Supplied in drums for pharmaceutical/agricultural chemical production.
