Products Description of Acetaldehyde CAS#75-07-0
Acetaldehyde, also called ethanal, is the simplest aldehyde (CH3CHO). Acetaldehyde is a colourless and volatile liquid made by the catalytic oxidation of ethanol, with a sharp and fruity odour.It is widely used industrially as a chemical intermediate.Acetaldehyde is also a metabolite of sugars and ethanol in humans,is found naturally in the environment, and is a product of biomass combustion.

Product Application of Acetaldehyde CAS#75-07-0
Acetaldehyde can also be used as an odorant, and it found in nature in many foods such as ripe fruits, cheese and heated milk. acetaldehyde occurs naturally during fermentation, and low levels of acetaldehyde are to be found in certain foods. It is mainly used for preparation of citrus, apple, cream type essence, etc.
