N-Butyl Cinnamate CAS 538-65-8

1. Acts N-Butyl cinnamate CAS 538-65-8 as a key fragrance ingredient in perfumes, candles and air fresheners to impart rich jasmine and hyacinth-like floral notes.

2. Serves N-Butyl cinnamate as a flavor additive in food processing, delivering sweet fruity-floral undertones to baked goods, confectionery and beverages.

3. Functions as a plasticizer in polymer formulations to improve the flexibility and processability of certain resin-based materials.

Store n-butyl cinnamate (CAS 538-65-8, colorless to pale yellow oily liquid, sweet floral-balsamic odor, flash point ~149°C, combustible) in sealed amber glass containers at 15–25°C in a cool, dark, well-ventilated area. Isolate from strong oxidants, acids and bases to avoid hydrolysis and aroma degradation. Wear nitrile gloves, safety goggles and a face mask; avoid vapor inhalation, skin/eye contact and ingestion to prevent mild irritation. Reseal tightly post-use; dispose of waste per local fragrance chemical regulations.

N-butyl cinnamate is a fragrance/flavor additive and industrial plasticizer, not for direct pure-form human ingestion; undiluted intake may cause oral and gastrointestinal discomfort. In regulated applications, N-Butyl cinnamate CAS 538-65-8 enhances the sensory appeal of consumer products, complies with food safety standards, and optimizes the mechanical properties of polymer materials.
