Solketal 100 g

Solketal serves as a fragrance carrier for use in reed diffusers and other scent diffusers. It has a faint yet noticeable odour reminiscent of paint thinner and acetone. In practice, this scent does not pose an issue, as it is easily masked by a sufficiently strong fragrance composition. The liquid evaporates effectively and consistently, and many fragrance ingredients dissolve well in it. It is easy to use: simply mix it with the desired fragrance ingredients in the required ratio, and it is ready. A fragrance concentration of 30–50% is common. This substance is intended for use in diffusers, not in perfumes, cosmetics, or personal care products. At room temperature, Solketal is a colourless to pale yellow liquid. It has a minimum purity of 99.5% and a long shelf life. It is a synthetic substance, not found in nature, and, in our case, is produced from plant-based raw materials. Another common name for it is isopropylidene glycerol. A well-known brand name for Solketal is Augeo Clean Multi; however, we do not sell that Solvay product, but rather Glycasol from Alteqo. Its environmental biodegradability is moderate.
