Overview of HHCB
HHCB has the molecular formula C18H26O and a molecular weight of approximately 258.40 g/mol. It is a synthetic musk fragrance ingredient used in fine fragrance and consumer product formulations.
Commercial products include undiluted material and diluted grades in carriers such as Diethyl Phthalate or Dipropylene Glycol. Concentration and carrier affect handling, formulation compatibility, and the amount of active fragrance material introduced.
Buyers should confirm identity, active content, carrier solvent, odour profile, colour, analytical specifications, packaging, and storage requirements before procurement. Specify whether undiluted HHCB or a diluted grade is required.
Applications of HHCB
Fine Fragrance & Perfumes
HHCB is used in perfume compositions to add a clean musk note and support the lasting character of the fragrance. Perfumers select the concentration and carrier according to the fragrance base and intended product.
Soaps & Detergents
Soap and detergent fragrance formulators use HHCB in musk accords. Performance should be assessed in the intended liquid or powder detergent system, as stability can differ between formulations.
Fabric Conditioners
HHCB is used in fabric conditioner fragrances where musk character and fragrance persistence are required. Formulators should assess compatibility with the conditioner base and the desired fragrance performance on fabric.
Personal Care Fragrances
Selected shampoo, deodorant, and other personal care fragrance compositions use HHCB as a musk ingredient. Suitability depends on the finished product, concentration, and applicable fragrance requirements.
Household Fragrances & Candles
HHCB can be used in selected household cleaning fragrances and candle compositions. Compatibility, stability, and fragrance performance should be evaluated in the specific product base.
