Overview of Undecanal

Undecanal, commonly known in the fragrance industry as Aldehyde C-11 Undecylic, is a powerful aliphatic aldehyde essential for creating modern, fresh, and floral scent profiles. It is a colorless to slightly yellow liquid with a distinctively waxy, floral-citrus odor that evokes the scent of rose petals and clean linen. Because of its extreme potency, Undecanal is used in trace amounts to provide a "sparkling" lift to perfumes, making it a staple in the creation of classic and contemporary aldehydic fragrances.

As a leading chemical supplier in India, ChemicalBull provides high-purity Undecanal that meets the strict organoleptic standards of international fragrance houses. To help you develop a complete aromatic or cosmetic range, you can also explore our ready inventory of Nonanal, Decanal, and Spilanthol, all maintained at our Vapi facility for immediate dispatch.


Applications of Undecanal

Fine Fragrance & Perfumery

Undecanal is a vital component in floral accords, especially rose, lily of the valley, and violet. It provides a unique "vibrant" effect to top notes, helping the fragrance project more effectively. For formulators working on high-end beauty products, we also offer specialized actives, such as Azelaic Acid, which complement our aroma chemicals in multi-functional skincare formulations.


Fabric Care & Household Products

Due to its "fresh and clean" profile, Undecanal is extensively used in laundry detergents and fabric softeners. It is highly valued for its ability to remain stable in surfactant systems while providing a long-lasting sense of freshness. Along with Menthyl Lactate for sensory cooling, Undecanal ensures that household products deliver a premium user experience.


Flavor Industry Applications

In the flavor sector, Undecanal is used in extremely high dilutions to impart fatty and citrus nuances to honey, fruit, and citrus-flavored essences. 


Safety & Handling Guidelines

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; Undecanal is prone to oxidation and should be stored in airtight containers.

  • For bulk storage, utilizing a nitrogen blanket is recommended to preserve the olfactory purity over time.

  • Handle with appropriate PPE, including nitrile gloves and safety goggles, as concentrated aldehydes can cause skin irritation.

  • Ensure the manufacturing area is well-ventilated to avoid respiratory irritation from concentrated vapors.

  • Consult the Undecanal MSDS provided by your trusted industrial chemical manufacturer for detailed chemical stability and first-aid instructions.
