Explore Top-Quality 4-tert-Butylcyclohexyl Acetate with Aure Chemical
4-tert-Butylcyclohexyl Acetate (PTBCHA), often referred to commercially by the trade name Cyclacet, CAS 32210-23-4, is one of the most widely used synthetic aromatic esters in perfumery. It typically exists as a mixture of cis and trans isomers, which can appear as a colorless liquid or a white crystalline solid depending on the ratio. It is highly valued for its powerful, clean, woody-floral, and pine-like aroma with notes of leather and spice. PTBCHA provides exceptional freshness and tenacity, acting as a crucial modifier and blender in many fragrance types. Aure Chemical provides this core ingredient with full Kosher and Halal certifications.

Application Overview
PTBCHA is indispensable across both high-end perfumery and high-volume consumer products due to its clean profile, tenacity, and stability:
Fine Fragrances: Used in the heart and base notes of virtually all woody, fougère, and chypre compositions. It provides a clean, dry woody background and is an excellent fixative, ensuring the long life of the fragrance on skin and fabric.
Functional Products: Its exceptional chemical stability against alkalinity and bleach makes it a workhorse ingredient in high-pH matrices like laundry detergents, powdered cleansers, and bar soaps. It is often used to create a 'fresh outdoors' or 'pine cleaner' scent.
Aquatic and Green Accords: It is frequently used to provide a fresh, slightly metallic, and herbaceous lift to modern aquatic, citrus, and green fragrance themes, blending beautifully with ingredients like Calone and Helional.
Cosmetics and Personal Care: Incorporated into a wide range of products including shampoos, deodorants, and skin creams for its appealing, tenacious scent and reliable performance in complex formulas.
