Usage
Use (Hekserij)
Ethyl acetoacetate has a green fruity scent reminiscent of green apples like
Granny Smith. The fragrance is not very strong, so undiluted use is common.
Typical use is in apple, pear and other tree fruit accords, for example. You
usually use between 0,1% and 15% of this substance in the fragrance composition,
for green apple it can be even more. It combines well with other green and
fruity scents and adds a touch of natural fresh fruitiness. It is mainly a top
note in perfumes and it is quite stable. Use in soap is not recommended because
it is a very volatile substance.
Keep cool, dry, dark and out of reach of children.
Physical properties
Properties (Hekserij)
Ethyl acetoacetate is a colourless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature.
The purity is at least 98% and the substance has a fairly long shelf life. It
occurs in nature, but for use as a fragrance, the synthetic version is used. In
theory, it can be based entirely on vegetable substances, in practice we expect
that this substance is largely made on substances from natural gas, petroleum
and air.
